Abstract:
Nonthermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP)(also known as cold atmospheric plasma [CAP]) is a rapidly emerging technology showing promising treatment results for a wide variety of dermatologic conditions. Research on NTAP for the treatment of pediatric dermatologic conditions is limited. We conducted a systematic review to elucidate reported applications of NTAP for skin conditions in children. Overall, NTAP offers a promising safety profile and painless treatment option that has the potential to deliver similar efficacy to many standard therapies in pediatric dermatology.
