In this study the efficacy of an acellular dermal template (Novomaix), combined with split thickness skin grafts, for use in patients with full thickness skin defects, is tested. Results will be compared intra-patient with those obtained after conventional treatment with split thickness skin grafts. The investigators expect this treatment to provide better outcome regarding scar quality.
