Proven Legal Advocates for New York Burn Victims

Burn injuries are some of the most painful and debilitating injuries a person can suffer. Severe burns often result in extensive scarring and disfigurement, in addition to long-term physical and psychological trauma. Many burn survivors require multiple surgeries and extensive rehabilitation, including physical and occupational therapy, to recover.

Types of Burn Injuries

Burn injuries are typically classified into three different categories based on the severity of the injury and the layers of skin that are affected.

These categories include:

• First-Degree Burns: The least severe type of burn, first-degree burns affect only the skin's outer layer. They are typically marked by redness, pain, and slight swelling.
• Second-Degree Burns: These burns penetrate the outer layer and reach the dermis, the skin's second layer. Characteristics include red, white, or blotchy skin, significant swelling, and blister formation.
• Third-Degree Burns: The most severe, third-degree burns extend through all layers of the skin and may affect underlying tissues. The skin often appears dry, leathery, and can be white, brown, or black in color.

In addition to the above, burns can also be classified as electrical, chemical, or thermal burns.
