Burns are a serious compromise to your snake's defenses and hydrostasis. I can only guess that your vet thinks home bathing your snake will add to the risk of infection. The snake will continue to have problems shedding until it is entirely healed and the scars reduced.

Have you discussed continued care with a vet, or are just recieving information from the previous owner?
