Is Skin Grafting Safe To Correct Discoloration Of Legs And Knees?

I have lechtin simplex chronicus and have been suffering with it since 2000. I have gone to Dermetologist and have been given creams and have taken cotizone. Finally my itching has been less. I have been wondering if surgery such as skin grafting to correct the discoloration to my leggs and knees would be a good idea. So that can have beauiful legs again be an option.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Skin grafting is not the absolute treatment for your condition. You must continue treatment from your dermatologist and this condition may need a longer treatment.
