Dragstedt-Wilson Skin Plastic Method

The Dragstedt-Wilson skin grafting method is a surgical procedure used to restore skin after burns, wounds, or other damage to the skin. This technique was developed by American surgeon Lionel Rhodes Dragstedt in the 1930s and improved by his colleague John Wilson.

The Dragstett-Wilson method involves using skin flaps taken from various areas of the patient's body. The flaps can be taken from either the inside or outside of the body, depending on the type of skin injury and the location where repair is needed.

To perform the operation, special tools and equipment are used, such as scalpels, clamps, needles, scissors, etc. A flap of skin is cut from a selected area of ​​the body and placed at the site of the injury. The edges of the flap are then sutured using surgical sutures to ensure a secure connection.

The Dragstedt-Wilson method is an effective method of skin restoration and has a high success rate. It can be used to treat various types of skin injuries, including burns, wounds, scars and other injuries. However, like any other surgical procedure, it can have its own risks and complications, so before performing the operation, it is necessary to carefully evaluate the patient and discuss all possible risks and benefits with him.
