As part of the initial exam, the doctor will determine the severity and the percentage of burns. The degrees of burns refer to the depth of the affected tissue and range from first degree to third degree, with third degree burns being the deepest.

First Degree Burns / Superficial Burns

  • Skin layers: Epidermis only
  • Looks like: Red skin without any blisters
  • Feels like: Hurts when you touch it, but tolerable
  • Healing Time: Will heal without treatment in a few days
  • Example: A sunburn is a first-degree burn

Second Degree Burns / Partial Thickness

  • Skin layers: Epidermis and dermis
  • Looks like: Bright red, moist skin with tense, fluid-filled blisters
  • Feels like: Extremely painful
  • Healing Time: 10-14 days

Deep Second Degree Burn / Deep Partial Thickness

  • Skin layers: Epidermis and dermis
  • Looks like: Dry, waxy skin that is either white or dull red and can have blisters
  • Feels like: Hurts, but less painful than a partial thickness burn
  • Healing time: More than 10 days to heal and may require surgery

Third Degree Burns / Full Thickness

  • Skin layers: Epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue
  • Looks like: Dry, leathery skin that varies in color
  • Feels like: Relatively painless
  • Healing time: Dependent on size of burn; almost always requires surgery
