Skin Graft? donor site?!


Question: Skin Graft!? donor site!?
does the donor site scar!? does the muscle show once the donor site has been cut!? how much does it hurt!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
The donor site- usually the hip or leg, is only a very thin layer removed with this thing that looks like a cheese shaver!. Super thin!. Area is left looking like a sunburned area of skin!. It heals up and returns to normal!. No cutting down to the muscle required:) Feels like a sunburn I've been told!. They then put the donated skin through a mesher contraption so that it spreads out to cover more area!. So you can take a little piece of skin and use it to cover a larger area!. Hope this helps!. Take care:)Www@Answer-Health@Com
