| dc.description.other-abstract | Pathological scarring, or keloids, are painful, itchy lesions that develop from abnormal wound healing. It affects the patient's quality of life in both physical and psychological ways. Since the cause of keloids is still unclear, there are no established therapeutic guidelines. The initial line of treatment is a traditional intralesional steroid injection, yet its application is constrained by adverse effects. These days, as laser technology advances, keloids can be effectively treated with various lasers in addition to traditional treatment. The effectiveness of three laser devices—a 585-595 nm pulsed dye laser, a 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser, and a 10600 nm fractional carbon dioxide laser— in treating keloids is examined in this systematic review. We looked through SCOPUS, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, and PubMed for relevant articles published between 1st January 2010 to 6th September 2023. Research details, data on scar characteristics, and result evaluations on validated scar measures were among the extracted data. There was heterogeneity in a lot of aspects: types of lasers used and laser parameters, treatment duration, scar size and age, skin type, etiology of scars, scar assessment scales, and treatment follow-up. In comparison to laser alone and other conventional procedures, the combination of laser plus intralesional steroids or verapamil produces a higher improvement in scar features and increases patient satisfaction. When using a fractional carbon dioxide laser, pliability is the most noticeable scar feature and PDL improved scar vascularity at a somewhat higher rate than other laser types. To validate these findings, more research in the form of randomized trials using similar standardized scar measures is required | en_US |
