First degree burns are limited to damage caused to the outer layer of the epidermis along with increased tenderness and erythema. Second degree burns can lead to superficial or deep partial-thickness injury to the dermis which is prone to infection and may result in hypertrophic scarring. Third degree burns lead to dermal barrier loss and the necrotic tissue results in systematic effect on capillaries away from the site and fluid volume loss.
