What is Skin Grafting Surgery?
Skin grafting is a surgical procedure that involves removing healthy skin from one area of the body (donor site) and transplanting it to cover a damaged or missing area (recipient site). This is often necessary for wounds that are too deep or large to heal naturally, such as severe burns, trauma, chronic ulcers, or after cancer surgery. At Baines Hospital, we offer both split-thickness and full-thickness grafts, as well as mesh and composite grafts for complex cases.
When wounds are too deep or large to heal naturally, Skin Grafting Surgery in Bangalore can offer a life-changing solution. At Baines Hospital, our expert plastic and reconstructive surgeons specialize in advanced skin grafting techniques to restore skin integrity, reduce infection risks, and promote faster healing. Whether you’ve suffered from a burn, injury, surgical wound, or chronic ulcer, we provide world-class treatment with precision and care.
Common Causes for Skin Grafting
Delaying treatment for deep wounds or burns can lead to infection, scarring, and loss of function. Early intervention with skin grafting can restore skin integrity and promote faster healing.
Understanding Skin Grafting Surgery
Skin grafting restores the skin’s protective function, reduces infection risk, and speeds up wound healing. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure high graft survival, excellent cosmetic results, and minimal tissue trauma. Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient’s needs for optimal recovery.
Most Commonly Affects
⚠️ If you have a non-healing wound, burn, or large area of skin loss, consult a specialist for early evaluation and treatment.
