Burns are classified by degrees. First degree burns are superficial burns to the skin. They do not penetrate further than the dermis and do not blister. An example of a first degree burn is a sunburn. In the vast majority of these cases, first degree burns heal within a few days and do not require treatment. Second degree burns extend deeper beyond the dermis and involve blistering. Depending on the depth, these burns take several weeks to several months to heal. These burns usually result in scarring, which may be extensive. Third degree burns extend all the way into the fat. These burns are generally treated with surgical grafts and hospitalization. Severe scarring is certain, and infections may complicate recovery.

Chemical burns are another type of burn that may occur. Chemical burns are often associated with strong household cleaners and other, similar products.
