چکیده
A. OVERVIEW During the first 6 days, wound inflammation has begun and the various components of healing have been initiated. In superficial burns, epidermal regeneration will be relatively rapid, if the wound environment is optimized. The injured dermal elements are usually covered by new epithelium within 2 weeks. The hyperplasia of dermal fibroblasts then begins to resolve, and healing is complete with only modest amounts of collagen deposited. The wound usually becomes relative pliable with time and minimal wound contraction is seen. Cosmetically, the superficial second degree burn, which heals in 2 weeks, results in minimal to no long-term scarring.
