What are the healing stages of a second degree burn?

Expect full healing: A second degree burn preserves the deeper dermal layer containing hair follicles and sweat glands with epidermal cells intact that can multiply and reproduce a full epidermal surface. As long as you take proper care to keep a moist, infection free environment to speed healing within 7-14 days, you should heal fully without scarring or permanent pigment changes. Ask a physician for wound care recs.

After the injury: Then the hemorrhage and inflammatory stage starts which elaborates many types of growth factors stimulating cytokine activity, angiogenesis, phagocytosis, collagen cross-linking and epitheliaization all of which leads to healing so long as continued injury, contamination or infection is controlled and any chronic disease states like diabetes and vascular disease are controlled.
