Laser therapy vs no treatment

Scar severity ‐ 585‐nm Pulsed‐Dye Laser (PDL) versus no treatment ‐ patient self‐assessment of scar improvement of 50% or higher ‐ hypertrophic and keloid scars ‐ · participants with hypertrophic and keloid scars

Laser therapy may leads to higher scar severity ‐ 585‐nm Pulsed‐Dye Laser (PDL) versus no treatment ‐… compared with no treatment (low certainty).

Laser therapy plus other treatment vs other treatment

Scar severity ‐ 585‐nm pulsed‐dye laser (PDL) plus triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) plus 5‐Fluorouracil (5‐FU) versus TAC plus 5‐FU ‐ blinded observer assessment of good to excellent scar improvement ‐ hypertrophic and keloid scars ‐ · participants with hypertrophic and keloid scars

It is very uncertain whether laser therapy plus other treatment changes scar severity ‐ 585‐nm pulsed‐dye laser (PDL) plus triamcinolone… compared with other treatment (very low certainty).
