Skin Grafting

What is Skin Grafting?

Skin grafting is a surgical procedure that involves transplanting healthy skin from one area of the body (donor site) to another area (recipient site) where the skin is damaged, burned, infected, or absent. This procedure helps improve function, appearance, and protect underlying tissues.
