Abstract

Dermal substitutes improve the quality of wound healing and quality of the scars. It acts as a scaffold in which cell migration and repair of wound takes place. Many multimodality treatment methods available to augment wound healing at various levels. Adermal substitute should be affordable, long lasting, ready-to-use, analgesic, durable, flexible, non-antigenic, stops water loss, conforms to uneven wounds, anti-microbial, and may be applied in one sitting. Skin grafting may usually result in poor skin quality and scar contracture. In this study, we attempted to use our own cost-effective dermal matrix assisted split skin grafting in a patient with post traumatic raw area.
