Abstract
Background A skin graft is a surgical procedure that involves removing healthy skin from one area of the body to another. Split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) is one of the basic modalities for wound cover [1]. Sometimes the donor site becomes painful and leaves a second wound or scar, which may take longer to cure than the primary graft site itself. Blister graft or suction graft (Epidermal grafting) is an alternative method of skin grafting in which we apply continuous negative pressure to the skin to harvest the epidermal layer of the skin. This procedure leaves minimal donor site morbidity or scars and is relatively less painful. It can be done on an outpatient basis. In our study, we try to compare the Blister graft (epidermal graft) with split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) and the mechanisms by which each technique
achieves wound healing
