Type Layers involved Appearance Texture Sensation Healing Time Prognosis Example
Superficial (1st-degree) Epidermis Red 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[1] Redness with clear blister.[1] Blanches with pressure.[1] Moist[1] Very painful[1] 2–3 weeks[1][2] Local infection (cellulitis) but no scarring typically[2]

Second-degree burn of the thumb

Deep partial thickness (2nd-degree) Extends into deep (reticular) dermis[1] Yellow or white. Less blanching. May be blistering.[1] Fairly dry[2] Pressure and discomfort[2] 3–8 weeks[1] Scarring, contractures (may require excision and skin grafting)[2] Second-degree burn caused by contact with boiling water
Full thickness (3rd-degree) Extends through entire dermis[1] Stiff and white/brown.[1] No blanching.[2] Leathery[1] Painless[1] Prolonged (months) and incomplete[1] Scarring, contractures, amputation (early excision recommended)[2] Eight day old third-degree burn caused by motorcycle muffler.
4th-degree Extends through entire skin, and into underlying fat, muscle and bone[1] Black; charred with eschar Dry Painless Requires excision[1] Amputation, significant functional impairment and in some cases, death.[1] 4th-degree burn
