SKIN GRAFT

Skin Grafting is a modern reconstructive plastic surgery technique that goes beyond simply covering injured areas. The procedure consists of removing a thin layer of healthy skin, called the donor area, and transplanting it to a region that has lost its natural coverage due to trauma, burns, surgery or extensive wounds. The objective is to restore skin protection, promote healing and recover the functionality and appearance of the affected area.

Therefore, in addition to promoting tissue reconstruction, the skin graft helps to improve mobility, reduce the risk of infection and restore comfort and quality of life to the patient. It is indicated for injuries that do not heal properly on their own, areas with significant skin loss and situations where natural regeneration is not sufficient, providing effective, safe and long-lasting results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does the skin graft leave a scar?

Yes. Both the area receiving the graft and the donor area may present scars. However, both are treated with techniques that minimize their appearance and tend to become more discreet over time.

How long does it take for the graft to “take”?

Generally, the graft begins to integrate within the first few days, with stabilization over the weeks. Medical monitoring is essential to ensure good healing and avoid complications.

Does the procedure hurt?

The surgery is performed under anesthesia, ensuring comfort during the procedure. Postoperatively, there may be sensitivity in the treated areas, controlled with appropriate medication.

Does the grafted skin look natural?

The appearance progressively improves, but there may be differences in color and texture between the graft and the surrounding skin. With time and adequate care, aesthetic integration tends to be satisfactory and functional.
