In the paper the numerical analysis of thermal process proceeding in the domain of one-dimensional skin tissue subjected to an external heat source is presented. The degree of the skin burn can be predicted on the basis of Henriques integrals. Main subject of paper is the sensitivity analysis of these integrals with respect to the thicknesses of epidermis and dermis. On the stage of numerical realization the boundary element method has been used.
