  • Compared laser treatment results with non-surgical and surgical interventions for scar and keloid therapy.

Main Results:

  • Pulsed laser systems demonstrated significant therapeutic potential for scar and keloid treatment.
  • Laser therapies provide a viable alternative to existing methods.

Conclusions:

  • Pulsed laser systems are effective therapeutic options for managing scars and keloids.
  • Laser treatments offer a promising alternative in the comprehensive management of abnormal scarring.
