The famous American presenter Jay Leno (Jay Leno) underwent surgery and a skin graft after suffered severe burns a few days ago, when a fire broke out while he was working on one of his cars in his garage in Burbank.
Leno, 72, suffered second-degree burns and will undergo another operation next week at the Grossman Burn Center north of Los Angeles, where he is being treated.
“The injuries he suffered covered his face, arms and chest. Some of the facial injuries are a little deeper and a little more worrisome because they show signs of third-degree progression,” said Dr. Peter H. Grossman, director of the center at West Hills Hospital in Los Angeles.
Leno is also being treated with hyperbaric oxygen to keep the burns from getting worse.
