Depends on depth: For first and superficial second degree burns twice a day gentle cleansing with a mild soap such as plain cetaphil soap followed my application of silvadene (silver sulfadiazine) cream may be all that is required. Anti inflammatories may help decrease the potential for hyper pigmentation. Avoid sun exposure as well while the wounds remains red. Deeper wounds may require more advanced therapy.
