First Degree Burns

Know Your Surgery Treatment

First-degree burns are considered the mildest form of burn injury, affecting only the epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin. These burns typically present as red, dry, and painful areas of the skin, often resembling extreme sunburn. Though they can be quite uncomfortable, first-degree burns usually heal on their own without leaving any scars. Proper wound care, hydration, and pain management are essential for a smooth recovery.
