Interventions

Momelan Technologies Epidermal Graft Harvesting System

The procurement of the epidermal micrograft involves the use of the MoMelan Technologies suction blister system which consists of a control box that creates the vacuum necessary to create the microblisters and a harvester. The device is applied to the subject's thigh to create blisters. The epidermal micrografts are then harvested and transferred to Tegadermâ„¢ and then placed on the surgical wound and the wound is bandaged.

Primary outcome measure

  • Wound healing/scarring [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]
