Generally, the skin transplanted from a normal wound will survive after one week, but it still needs to be fixed with elastic gauze or plaster, and the activity should be restricted for two to three weeks to ensure the healing of the skin graft.

1. For patients with chronic diseases or the elderly, wound healing is slow and requires a long time of fixation.

2. After the skin graft wound heals, the skin is dry and you can apply moisturizing oil.

3. The skin substitute dressing covered by the skin area will slowly fall off by itself after drying, and it is not allowed to tear it off by itself to avoid damaging the skin.

4. If you find abnormal swelling, pain and bleeding in the skin excision area or skin repair area, please inform the medical staff immediately.
