Apollo Adlux Hospital provides specialised wound and burn management for acute injuries, chronic wounds and complex conditions that may require reconstructive intervention. The department manages major and minor burns, chronic non-healing ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, keloids, scars and post-burn contractures as part of its comprehensive plastic surgery services.

Acute burn management focuses on timely assessment and treatment of burn injuries, with care tailored to the severity and extent of tissue damage. Major and minor burns can require wound care, specialist monitoring and reconstructive procedures depending on the clinical condition. Post-burn contractures may restrict movement and cause functional limitations after wounds have healed. Reconstructive surgery can help release these contractures and improve movement and appearance.

Chronic non-healing ulcers require careful evaluation because delayed wound closure can increase the risk of complications. Diabetic foot ulcers may require multidisciplinary management involving plastic surgeons, vascular specialists, endocrinologists and wound care professionals. Surgical options can include debridement, skin grafting and flap reconstruction when appropriate.

Keloid and scar management includes treatment approaches such as surgical excision, intralesional corticosteroid injections, silicone gel therapy, compression garments and laser treatment, depending on the type and characteristics of the scar. The department also provides 24x7 trauma services for urgent burns, wounds and complex injuries requiring immediate specialist attention.
