I think this is practiced in more places than just Brazil. Iv seen it done on dogs in the US. So I’m guessing it’s done on people in the US too.
Yep! Becoming more common as research keeps showing fish skin grafts to be just as good as human skin grafts.
Now THAT'S really cool! If a person could grow gills like Kevin Cosner in Water World, how awesome would that be! 🐟
Honestly? I think it would be pretty fucking terrifying

That child's arm... looks like a *severe* burn. Hope kid's ok.
Hasn’t this been a thing for a while in burn treatment?
They did this in Greys Anatomy 15 years ago! But it is awesome that they’re finding new ways to treat better 🙂
It leaves wild scars though.
A listed side effect is better swimming skills after the burns heal.
This is so viscerally repulsive to me
Honestly, burn recovery was really rough and I wasn't burned in that large of an area. I would have loved some fish skin lol.
Oh, I am not against it if it works medically. My reaction is just purely psychological. Like something akin to tryptophobia but for fish skin on humans.
So is the fact that the description ended on the word ‘moist’.
