Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a treatment of full thickness wounds by the dermal substitute Matriderm, split skin graft and VAC treatment will improve scar quality, demonstrated by a significant increase of skin elasticity parameters after 3 months.

Additionally, an increase of the take of graft and improvement of scar assessment scale, scar colour/pigmentation and time to complete wound closure, is expected.
