Abstract:
Considering difficulties of achieving vertical incidence of beam in different positions of skin, it is significant to study potential effects of incidence angles of laser on incisions. Surgical platform with a 1064 nm continuous fiber laser was established. Incident angle was adopted and real-time temperature fluctuations in laser operating area could be monitored. The rats were treated with laser at day 0 and day 3 after incision modeling, and H&E, Masson, Sirius Red, and Immuno-histochemical staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were adopted at day 3, 7, 14 to analyze the performance of healing. Laser with energy density of 67.54 J/mm2 can effectively accelerate wound healing in vivo, in which a laser with incident angle around 60° can effectively avoid scar hyperplasia. Therefore, the use of low energy laser with a small deflection angle has a good clinical application prospect in promoting wound healing.
