Can severe burn scars be repaired?
Director Wang Suijiang of the Second People's Hospital of Guangdong Province can do scar repair surgery. The specific surgical method and effect depend on the severity, location, formation time and the overall situation of the patient. The following are some main methods and characteristics of surgical repair of severe burn scars:

Surgical treatment:

Skin flap method: it is mostly used for facial scar repair, and its surgical purpose is to protect deep skin tissue. There is a large amount of subcutaneous adipose tissue in the flap layer, and skin flap transplantation can better help the recovery of facial skin.

Dermable method: suitable for superficial scars after recovery period. It mainly polishes epidermis and dermal papillae, and gradually smoothes the irregular parts whose surface is inconsistent with normal skin, and the color is close to the nearby skin.

Resection suture method: For people with a large area in burn scars, this method will only leave a very thin scar line, and it is also to narrow the scar range as much as possible. However, for people with complete face, tense skin and large scar, they can do scar resection twice, but the direct time interval between the two operations is at least half a year.

Scar excision and skin grafting: It is suitable for a wide range of people in burn scars, and how much skin to transplant can be decided according to the number of scars.
