Advanced Post Burn Contracture Treatment in Kolkata
Burn injuries can cause significant damage to the skin and underlying tissues. During the healing process, scar tissue may tighten and restrict movement, leading to a condition known as a post burn contracture. These contractures can affect daily activities, cause deformity, limit joint mobility, and impact quality of life. If you are seeking expert post burn contracture treatment in Kolkata, Dr. Cinjini Das offers advanced reconstructive surgical solutions designed to restore function, mobility, and appearance.
As a highly trained Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon with expertise in reconstructive surgery, Dr. Cinjini Das specializes in the management of complex burn-related deformities and contractures.
What is a Post Burn Contracture?
A post burn contracture occurs when burn scars mature and tighten, pulling the surrounding skin, muscles, tendons, and joints. This tightening can restrict movement and lead to functional impairment.
Commonly affected areas include:
- Neck
- Face
- Hands and fingers
- Elbows
- Shoulders
- Armpits
- Knees
- Ankles
Without proper treatment, contractures can worsen over time and significantly reduce mobility.
Symptoms of Post Burn Contracture
Patients may experience:
- Restricted joint movement
- Tight or thickened scar tissue
- Difficulty performing daily activities
- Visible deformity
- Pain or discomfort during movement
- Functional limitations affecting work or personal life
Early evaluation by a reconstructive plastic surgeon can help determine the most effective treatment approach.
Advanced Treatment Options
Dr. Cinjini Das offers individualized treatment plans based on the severity and location of the contracture.
Contracture Release Surgery

Following contracture release, healthy skin may be transplanted to cover the affected area and promote optimal healing.
Local and Regional Flap Reconstruction
Advanced reconstructive techniques utilize nearby healthy tissue to replace damaged skin and provide durable coverage.
Microvascular Reconstruction
For extensive or complex contractures, microsurgical reconstruction may be required to restore both form and function.
