Dire Burn Care

Split-thickness grafts are used to cure burns by using the nearest layers of your skin. Full-thickness grafts involve all the layers of the skin from the donor site. This plastic surgery procedure can help you recover from burned wounds, decrease fluid loss, improve your appearance, and protect underlying structures.

- Scar Revisions: Scar revision is a type of plastic surgery that is performed by our surgeon to reduce the appearance of scars. This surgery can also help enhance the skin texture that may have been damaged because of the scar. Depending on the location, size, severity, and shape of the scar, BM Cosmetic’s surgeon will recommend the most suitable scar revision procedure.
- Tissue expansion: Tissue expansion is a plastic surgery procedure that uses a balloon-like device known as an expander. It will stretch the surrounding skin and grow extra skin over the burned area. In detail, the expander is inserted under the skin near the burned skin and gradually inflated with saline solution. This will make the skin stretch and grow. The extra skin can then be used to cover the burned area.
At BM Cosmetic, our surgeon has extensive experience in performing tissue expansion. This surgical procedure can help preserve the texture, colour, and sensation of your original skin.

Our surgeon will perform this surgery in cases of extensive and serious burns.
