This is just awesome. Burns fully healed within 4 days? Incredible. I imagine that this might be expensive to start, but long term, imagine how much money it would save by reducing the amount of time that burn victims need to be in the hospital and it sounds like it would significantly increase the mortality rate.

I definitely didn't need that to pop up in front of all my office coworkers, thanks jerkweed, now they probably think I have a burn victim fetish or something.
I'm kidding. Kinda. It's very gross to look at.

I'm almost happy National Geographic hates Brazil and won't let me see this
But yeah, I was expecting a gun that could shoot deadly skin fragments or something

That's pretty ingenious. Much better than growing skin the conventional way.

Thats a legit medical breakthrough, I'm wondering about the cost but the ability to heal burns in days is nevertheless incredible and will definitely save lives and prevent suffering.
I wonder if there will be a homeopathic version that its just water with a microscopic amount of skin in it.

Just essential oils and echinacea, no skin or water.
