“…Any exercise or activity that stretches the graft or puts it at risk of trauma should be avoided for three to four weeks. A hospital stay of one to two weeks is often required in full-thickness grafts, as the recovery period is longer (Borrelli et al, 2019;Stone et al, 2021).…”

Treatment for severe burns has improved rapidly in the last 20 years. Nowadays, patients can survive with burns covering up to approximately 90% of the body, although they often face permanent physical impairment. This type of research is a literature review. A literature review was conducted to gather information regarding the evaluation of skin natural change function in the split-thickness skin graft. This research is a type of review article that aims to obtain information about acne based on bio-markers. Source of data used secondary sources. The method of data collection through collecting data was from research articles taken within the last five years. Skin grafting remains an essential step on the reconstructive surgeon ladder. Meanwhile, the basic premise has remained similar results over the years. New techniques and devices have contributed to significantly improved functional and aesthetic results. Advances in the production of skin substitutes have provided better options to treat patients and will continue to be an essential and dynamic component of this field in the future.

Antibiotics have been used as a prophylaxis for dermatologic procedures. We will review the various procedures that specific antibiotics with dosages are used for, depending on the procedure, diagnosis, and circumstance of the patient. We will examine the current and updated guidelines used in dermatologic surgery and the overlapping guidelines across other fields. Physicians must consider the side effects of antibiotics and the resistance that may occur as a result before using the class or level of prophylaxis. Initial evaluation for alcohol, chlorhexidine, or iodine should be measured as well. Updated guidelines aim to address the contraindications of antibiotics, yet further research is needed to avoid antibiotic resistance and to explore alternative methods of antibiotic application, such as intranasal and intravenous.
