ok, burns are affected during growth in many instances.
But not all burns, and most of the work done on burns is as cosmetic as any other reason. You'll never hear a doctor neglect to mention the reduction of the harsh appearance of a burn when talking about initial skin grafts on a burn victim. Simply because it is a matter of concern for EVERYONE.
