Type Layers involved Appearance Texture Sensation Healing Time Prognosis Example
Superficial (1st-degree) Epidermis Erythema without blisters Dry Painful 5–10 days Heals well. A sunburn is a typical first-degree burn.
Superficial partial thickness (2nd-degree) Extends into superficial (papillary) dermis Redness with clear blister. Blanches with pressure. Moist Very painful 2–3 weeks Local infection (cellulitis) but no scarring typically

Second-degree burn of the thumb

Deep partial thickness (2nd-degree) Extends into deep (reticular) dermis Yellow or white. Less blanching. May be blistering. Fairly dry Pressure and discomfort 3–8 weeks Scarring, contractures (may require excision and skin grafting) Second-degree burn caused by contact with boiling water
Full thickness (3rd-degree) Extends through entire dermis Stiff and white/brown. No blanching. Leathery Painless Prolonged (months) and incomplete Scarring, contractures, amputation (early excision recommended) Eight day old third-degree burn caused by motorcycle muffler.
4th-degree Extends through entire skin, and into underlying fat, muscle and bone Black; charred with eschar Dry Painless Requires excision Amputation, significant functional impairment and in some cases, death. 4th-degree burn
