It appears that Doctors have found a new and innovative way of rejuvenating a severely burned skin using skin of freshwater fish.

The discovery was made when a 36-year-old woman, Maria Ines Candido da Silva, who had suffered severe burns on her arms, neck and face after a gas canister exploded at the restaurant she served at, was given fish skin to reduce her injuries in pioneering new treatment.
It’s believed to be the first time in medical history that scientists have used the skin of a fish as a plaster to treat wounds.
‘I was in absolute agony and desperate for anything to ease my suffering,’.
‘I loved the treatment and would recommend it to anyone who has suffered like me.’
Miss da Silva told Dailymail.
One of the Doctors, Dr Edmar Maciel said ‘We discovered that Tilapia fish skin performs significantly better in the healing process by soothing and curing severe wounds caused by burns.’
Interesting discovery!
