    In the experimental group, the operative plan was to consider taking a 15% larger amount than necessary and replace over-harvested skin back onto the donor site in an island manner. Any remaining skin graft was returned to the donor site and a polyurethane dressing [Alleyvn, Smith, \& Nephew] was placed on the regrafted skin for fixation
