skin grafts
Burn treatment patches
Skin grafts are pieces of skin surgically removed from one area of the body and transplanted to another, typically to repair wounds, burns, or areas where skin has been lost.
The donor site may be on the same patient or from another source.
The burn victim required multiple skin grafts over several months.
