“NO SKIN CRAFTS”

 

As reported by Dr. M.S., M.D.

June 1, 2000

Saturday, while Jeff was holding gasoline to start a fire and burn logs and brush in his back yard, the gasoline exploded. He received extensive burns on his body.

First/Second degree burns on the left leg - from the top of thigh to the foot, third degree burns on the left arm from the top of forearm to the hand. Two hours later, his skin was peeling off, with an intense burning sensation. The doctors wrapped his arm after scraping off the dead skin and he was scheduled for skin graft surgery in 2 weeks – they should  wait to make sure there was no infection starting.

Tuesday he began PAPIMI treatments. Four minutes each exposure directly on the burned areas. He was experiencing no pain during treatment.One hour later, he reported that the burned areas felt as if they were submerged in ice water and the burning sensation had stopped. There was no blistering.

Thursday and Saturday, he was treated again with PAPIMI.

Monday, he returned to his doctor for a pre-surgical inspection to determine whether Jeff could take the skin graft surgery.

After unwrapping the arm, the doctor was shocked:

Jeff's skin had totally healed!

There was NO NEED FOR SURGERY.

This was on the 11th day after the accident!

The skin on his arm looked completely new - pink, brand new skin.

Jeff continued his PAR-IMI treatments for a couple days every week. 2 ½ weeks after the accident, Jeff’s skin looked like a “new baby’s bottom”.

You could not tell that there was ever a burn, except that Jeff’s new skin did not have any freckles from the sun and the hair was shorter there.

THERE WAS NO BLISTERING, NO SCARRING AND NO SKIN GRAFTS.
