Burns

From Burn injury to Advanced reconstructive care for burn survivors.

"Burn reconstruction is not only about covering wounds — it is about restoring movement, function, and the patient’s confidence to live normally again.” — Dr Gaurav Patodia

Burn injuries caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, or explosions can damage skin, muscles, and deeper tissues. Severe burns often lead to contractures, scarring, and functional impairment if not treated properly.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery plays a crucial role in burn care through skin grafting, scar reconstruction, contracture release, and advanced reconstructive techniques to restore both function and appearance.

Why consider a Plastic Surgical Burn Care Unit for:

Restores skin coverage and promotes healing through skin grafts and reconstructive procedures.
Prevents and corrects contractures that restrict joint movement and function.
Improves appearance and reduces visible burn scars.
Plastic surgeons specialize in skin reconstruction and scar management, essential for optimal recovery after burns.
Personalized treatment planning focuses on restoring function, mobility, and long-term quality of life.
