Skin grafting transplants healthy skin to cover wounds, burns or injuries, helping healing and function. Grafts may be split-thickness or full-thickness depending on the site and need.
Vitiligo surgery uses similar grafting or cellular transfer methods to restore pigment in stable patches that have not responded to other treatment.
Early evaluation helps plan the right approach.
