How long will it take to heal 3rd degree burns?

Answer by  sapphire51 (1048)

That would probably vary from one individual to the next. A third-degree burn is the most severe. It is deep, involving the full thickness of the skin. The skin may be from white to black in color, or it may be charred; it may appear waxy and stiff. The victim usually has no feeling at all in the burned area.

Third degree burns usually need hospitalization, it may take 2 weeks to a month for it to heal, and it will also depend on how big your burns are.

The healing time for 3rd degree burns can vary depending on each individual's ability to heal, taking care of the burn properly, and the size of the burn. Small burns may take anywhere from one week to a couple of months to fully heal. Larger burns may take several months.

If the burn has been seen by a doctor and treated than it should not take more than a week or two for the burn to start to dissapear. However scars may stay forever.
