Enhancing the Survival of Full‐Thickness Grafts

Abstract

The primary factors relating to the survival of full-thickness skin grafts have been discussed in addition to preoperative planning considerations, technical considerations, and postoperative care techniques that minimize problems. Postoperative dermabrasion revision to improve subjective appearance is useful in most cases to maximize final cosmetic results. Careful attention to all the factors relating to full-thickness skin graft survival is mandatory for optimum success when performing this surgical procedure.
