The US has one of these in almost every major city for burn victims. My nephew has a normal arm and back thanks to a skin bank in Raleigh, NC.
Good to know. It's good on one hand, but creepy on the other...
I wonder what the proverbial line of demarcation is when they "part somebody out"...
Kinda gives new meaning to getting parts from the "boneyard"
The US ones mostly grow new skin patches to help heal. There are some actual skin graft pieces, but it's rare. 99% of people will reject any one elses skin.
