It is expedient to perform operative elimination of the postburn alopecia, severe contracture of the neck, cicatricial bandage of the chest and abdomen by means of the dermotensive flaps. This permits to reduce a number of operative steps, create a sufficient reserve of healthy tissue identical to the lost one both in texture and in colour.
