Flame burns are caused by direct exposure to fire and can result in deep tissue damage. These burns often involve the epidermis, dermis, and deeper structures, causing severe pain and potential scarring and contractures. Immediate treatment focuses on:
Scald burns typically result from hot liquids or steam and are particularly common in children and the elderly. These burns often affect the hands, face, and torso, leading to superficial or deep partial-thickness injuries. Our approach includes:
Electrical burns occur when electric current passes through the body, causing deep tissue destruction and nerve damage. These injuries may not appear severe on the surface but can affect muscles, bones, and internal organs. Our protocol includes:
Chemical burns result from exposure to corrosive substances like acids or alkalis. They can cause deep tissue necrosis and require prompt neutralization. Our treatment protocol involves:
Reconstructive Surgery: For deep tissue loss and scarring.
Children are particularly vulnerable to burns, and their delicate skin is more prone to severe damage. Pediatric burn care requires specialized attention, including:
Skin grafting is a fundamental technique for covering deep or extensive burns. We utilize:
Meek micrografting is an innovative technique that allows for maximum coverage with minimal donor site requirements. Ideal for extensive burns, it promotes rapid epithelialization and reduces hospital stay and morbidity.
Burns affecting sensitive areas like the face, hands, feet, and perineum require specialized care to prevent contractures and functional limitations. Our targeted approach includes:
After acute care, patients require long-term rehabilitation to regain mobility and function. Our comprehensive program includes:
Acute burns care is critical for minimizing damage, preventing infection, and promoting optimal healing after burn injuries. Whether caused by heat, chemicals, or electricity, immediate and specialized treatment can significantly improve recovery outcomes.
Immediate treatment is crucial. The first hour after a burn injury is critical for minimizing damage and promoting recovery. Seek medical attention immediately.
Not necessarily. Minor burns may heal with wound care and dressings, while deep burns often require skin grafting or micrografting to restore functionality and appearance.
Yes, we offer scar revision and management treatments, including laser therapy and dermabrasion, to improve both function and aesthetics.
The length of stay depends on the severity and extent of the burn. Severe burns may require weeks of inpatient care, while milder cases may be treated on an outpatient basis.
Be cautious around hot surfaces, chemicals, and open flames. Educate children about burn risks and ensure your home has fire safety measures in place.
