Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Full thickness burns penetrate all layers of the skin, including the subcutaneous tissue. Deep burns primarily affect the dermis and can also penetrate to the subcutaneous layer, but typically spare the epidermis. Partial thickness burns damage the epidermis and may extend into the dermis, but do not reach the subcutaneous tissue. First degree burns only affect the epidermis and are considered the mildest type of burn.
