    Abstract

    Thermal tissue injuries lead to heat denatured necrotic tissue, commonly known as burn eschar. This eschar can induce both local and systemic complications, including inflammation and infection which also contribute to the breakdown of the eschar through autolysis. This process of “conservative” treatment through topical wound medication and dressing changes exacerbates both local and systemic insults as well as the development of granulation tissue, ultimately leading to heavy scarring through healing by secondary intention.
