First degree burns only affect the outermost layer of skin, the epidermis. These cause slight swelling and redness and are fairly painful.
Second degree burns affect the epidermis and the dermis. These burns are very painful and cause the skin to turn bright red and blister.
Third degree burns affect the entire skin, including hair follicles, sweat glands, oil glands, blood vessels, and other structures. These burns aren't painful because even the pain receptors have been damaged, and are often leathery, white, brown, or tan in color.
