Scars from accidental burns are a source of concern for many people, and in the past, the solution to these unsightly scars has been surgical repair of the skin and cosmetic surgery. However, these procedures have a certain failure rate and the actual results are not guaranteed. At the Red Cross Hospital in Kassel, Germany, however, this problem no longer exists, as scars disappear with a single spray. The doctors here use a device invented by the University of Cambridge. The device, called the Recell-Kit, uses a special agent to separate the patient’s own upper epidermal skin and granulate these upper epidermal cells into a cell suspension that can be sprayed. Since these epidermal cells are taken from the patient’s own skin, there is absolutely no rejection. After a few weeks of spraying these cell suspensions onto the patient’s burned epidermis, the mixture of stem cells, melanocytes responsible for coloring the skin, cells responsible for producing keratinized cortex, and molded skin cells will help form the real skin. For the time being, however, it is not possible to use this technique for repair, and the extent of the trauma is not yet too large. In addition to burns, doctors at the Red Cross Hospital in Kassel, Germany, believe that this new type of repair technique will also be a boon for some patients born with skin discoloration.
