ABSTRACT
Deep dermal burns are initially difficult to evaluate. They sometimes even undergo spontaneous healing. We present our own experience concerning the use of dermabrasion with sandpaper, a veritable alternative to early scar excision. Skin grafts are not always called for. The aesthetic results are excellent. Dermabrasion should be systematically considered for all deep dermal burns and particularly for scalding burn mechanisms or facial burns (AU)
