Skin avulsion is a wound that happens when skin is torn from your body during an accident or other injury.The most common avulsion injury, usually occur during motor vehicle collisions. The severity of avulsion ranges from minor to moderate and severe. Suprafascial avulsions are those in which the depth of the removed skin reaches the subcutaneous tissue layer, while subfascial avulsions extend deeper than the subcutaneous layer. Small suprafascial avulsions can be repaired by suturing, but most avulsions require skin grafts or reconstructive surgery.
