a method of treating damaged or lost skin in which a piece of skin is taken from another area of the body and transplanted in a damaged or missing section

Replacing an area of skin with another piece taken from elsewhere in the body. Occasionally in skin cancer surgery, a wide area of skin is affected and has to be removed. This is then replaced with a piece of your own skin. This is most often taken from the upper thigh. Skin grafts have to be carefully watched while they are healing to make sure that they are getting a good enough blood supply and that they are free from infection.
