I agree, Jan. Burns are so terrible and do leave such awful scars. I knew that new skin could be grown, but this is amazing. God bless the people who conceived this and may it be put into major mass production for the entire world to use.

WOW, that is just amazing, I wonder who invented it and how long it took them to build.

Amazing!! In the mid 70's, really before "modern" techniques were around, or even many burn centers, we took the patients to Physical Therapy, put them in a giant whirlpool called a Hubbard tank & scrubbed the dead ,dying, burned skin off with gauze & scrub brushes. We peeled it off, cut it off using twizzers & scissors. Yep, they had had pain meds but they were awake. Many badly burned 2nd & 3rd degree. It would have been so wonderful for them all if this was around!! Did you notice how few scars the patient in the video had? NONE!? WOW WOW WOW. It shouldn't be experimental, all burn pts. should be having it available now. Thanks, Ditter, for this informative & amazing video!

Amazing. I don't understand why it is still experimental when it could be helping so many people now. They need to move faster on this.

Sorry to hear about your son's accident. Having worked in an Aluminum plant (Reynold's Metals in McCook. Illinois) in their medical department those metal burns are probably the worse burns one can have. So many impurities in the molting metal. Glad he's fine now.

It sure was hard working on the burn units back then...we've come a long, long way since then...much of it thanks of NASA.

Wow!

I have to agree ...WOW

Ditter,
You always have an important message. I was burned as a child, and I can relate to never having the disfigurement from burns. Amazing! Thank you for this. -Kelly

This video has been blocked in Oz on copyright grounds = makes me MORE curious.

Basically it's a spray gun. They remove stem cells from the skin of the burn victim, then spray them on the wound. The problem with burns has always been infection. They've tried growing skin, but it takes quite awhile for the skin "patch" to grow. This is a very fast method of covering the burn with the patient's own cells to form a barrier against infection and, of course, to speed new skin formation.

SO wish I could have watched but alas blocked in all direction s due to copyright not even youtube

What a fantastic item, Ditter! I can't wait to forward it on to so many others. God bless this man - and you for telling us about it.

OMG!!! this has got to be the most amazing breakthrough i have ever seen, imagine how amazing this would be for children especially!

Thanks for posting this, it was truely amazing.

This is truly amazing. Hopefully this will be in all burn centers around the world soon for everyone to be able to use this.

Ditter--thank you for posting this! It's truly an amazing breakthrough for burn victims!
I have to admit, though, when I saw your post, I thought that it would be something funny... :oops:

It's amazing alright.

Me too :?

Hi Ditter,couldn't get your message because it was blocked here in the U.K. However I just wanted to tell you that I always look out for your funny jokes, they do so cheer me up. At the moment I am really in need of that. I am on mophine patches to control pain and after years of producing work for helping various causes I feel I cannot cope.I know that these feelings are wrong,I have so much to be thankful for, a loving husband and son plus good friends.I have even left my church because I feel my thoughts are not worthy of the gifts I have been given.Wow, I really am sounding off, please forgive but this site always gives such support and for the first time I feel in need. I always have my fathers words in my mind, he used to say whatever was the problem " It will go off".True enough. Am thinking I should just delete this, sounds like a " Oh poor me" message.It's helped just getting it down though. Love this site, Letty.

this is incredible. one of my least favorite cases to do has historically been anesthesia for burn debridement. this speed and depth of healing is nothing short of miraculous. now i have to go and research....fabulous!

How wonderful! Thanks for sharing. My husband just had some robotic surgery done on Friday and is home and doing well. It is amazing that technology has come so far.

Ditter43 thank you so much! My Dad just suffered terrible second degree burns on both his hands trying to put out a kitchen fire. I'm going to check with his treating doctor to see if this 'skin cell gun' is available. THANK YOU for sharing!

I just posted this on my Facebook for more people to see.

Thanks, Ditter.

You go ahead and cry on our shoulders...I think all of us in pain should get together and have a pity party!!! We haven't done that in a while!! I hope you feel better now!! :D

Wow! What a technique! I know the long, drawn-out process previously used for burns. This sounds amazing, that it was healed in 4 days. three cheers for the researchers and doctors willing to use new techniques!

Amazing!

Wow! That is absolutely incredible. Wonderful news.

Tried to watch your video but it is blocked in Canada due to National Geographic liscencing jane

too bad!

Google it, it should come up.

Absolutely amazing!!!

I tried to watch it but it was banned in this country under copy right laws. darn I would have liked to have seen it. I love watching new medical ideas.

Totally amazing!!

WOW!! That is amazing and truly life changing!!
