Necrotizing fasciitis results in gross morbidity and mortality if not treated early. Necrotizing fasciitis is a potentially fatal infection involving the subcutaneous tissue and fascia. It is commonly known as a flesh-eating disease. APRP helped as an adjuvant therapy for optimizing the outcome in various indications of plastic surgery.
