What does cm2 mean in reference to skin grafts?

cm2 stands for centimeters per square. In reference to skin grafts, cm2 is the measurement used to quantify the area or spread of the skin grafts across the wound site. It helps to establish the size of the skin grafts needed to cover and repair the damaged tissue.

Plastic and reconstructive surgeons utilize accurate measurements in cm2 to determine the precise dimensions and quantities of skin grafts required for successful surgeries. This ensures proper wound coverage, tissue regeneration, and optimal healing outcomes.
