Optimization of treatment of superficial dermal burns in head and neck area

Abstract

Generally accepted treatment techniques of superficial dermal burns are the following: spontaneous necrosis rejection, protracted period of wound cleansing, formation of granulations and their spontaneous epithelization. Such treatment, awaiting for spontaneous rejection of wound necrosis and involving step-by-step necrectomy, did not prove to be efficient enough due to protracted period of healing, resulting in generalization of infection, wound dystrophy, formation of gross fibrous layer, with subsequent development of visible deforming scars.
