I am 8 weeks post op my first procedure and 3 weeks post op my surgical debridement. I just had my wound vac removed and the next decision is whether to have a third op, skin graft, or to just let it heal up naturally. What are the pros and cons of a skin graft? And is it bad for your body to go under general anaesthetic 3 times within 8 weeks?
