- Our Approach
Your Burns Care Journey
From emergency treatment through recovery — comprehensive burn care
1
Emergency Assessment & Resuscitation
For severe burns, immediate assessment includes evaluating burn depth and extent (percentage of body surface area), checking airway (inhalation injury), and beginning fluid resuscitation. We address pain management and tetanus prophylaxis. Minor burns may be treated in outpatient settings.
2
Wound Care & Infection Prevention
Burn wounds require specialised care including cleaning, debridement (removing dead tissue), and dressing. We use various dressing materials and techniques based on burn characteristics. Infection prevention includes sterile technique, antibiotics when indicated, and monitoring for signs of infection.
3
Surgical Intervention if Needed
Deep burns or large surface area burns may require surgery including escharotomy (releasing constricting burned tissue), excision of dead tissue, and skin grafting. Our plastic surgeons perform these procedures using techniques that optimise healing and minimise scarring.
4
Rehabilitation & Recovery
As wounds heal, rehabilitation becomes crucial. Physiotherapy maintains joint mobility and prevents contractures. Occupational therapy helps patients regain independence. We provide scar management including pressure garments, silicone sheets, and scar revision surgery when needed. Psychological support continues throughout recovery.
- FAQS
Helping You Understand Burn Care
Burn injuries raise many questions. These answers help you understand burn treatment and recovery.
What should I do immediately after a burn?
For thermal burns, cool the area with running water (not ice) for 10-20 minutes. Remove jewellery and loose clothing near the burn, but don't remove anything stuck to the skin. Cover with a clean, dry cloth. For chemical burns, flush with water for at least 20 minutes. Seek medical attention for burns larger than your palm, on face/hands/genitals, or caused by chemicals/electricity.
How are burns classified?
Burns are classified by depth: First-degree (superficial) affects only the outer skin layer, causing redness and pain. Second-degree (partial thickness) affects deeper skin, causing blisters and severe pain. Third-degree (full thickness) destroys all skin layers, may appear white/charred, and can be painless due to nerve damage. Treatment depends on depth and extent.
When is skin grafting needed?
Skin grafting is needed for deep burns (third-degree) or large second-degree burns that won't heal on their own within 2-3 weeks. Grafting helps wounds heal faster, reduces scarring, and improves function. Our plastic surgeons determine if and when grafting is appropriate based on the specific burn.
How long does burn recovery take?
Recovery varies widely based on burn severity. Minor burns may heal in 1-2 weeks. More severe burns can take weeks to months. Deep burns requiring grafting have longer recovery periods. We provide specific timelines based on your injury and monitor healing closely.
Will my burn leave a scar?
All burns that penetrate beyond the outer skin layer will leave some scarring. However, proper care including skin grafting when needed, and scar management (pressure garments, silicone, massage) can significantly improve scar appearance. For problematic scars, revision surgery may be an option once healing is complete.
