Edit How is toasted skin syndrome different from a burn?

Please add the new faq details.
A burn results from heat intense enough to cause immediate tissue damage — typically at temperatures above 48°C to 50°C — and presents acutely with redness, blistering, or tissue destruction. Toasted skin syndrome occurs at lower temperatures, between 43°C and 47°C, where no immediate damage is felt but cumulative exposure gradually disrupts the skin's blood vessels and pigment-producing cells. There is no acute injury with toasted skin syndrome; instead, changes develop slowly over weeks or months of repeated exposure without any single incident causing noticeable harm.
