In the reconstruction of facial burn scars, large, thin, color-matching flaps are desirable due to aesthetic and functional demands. There have been many reports using prefabricated flaps to resurface facial skin lesions. However, an algorithm to select the most suitable treatment option for the ...
Compression devices help scars mature and heal, preventing complications, improving scar texture, making the skin more flexible, and guiding the body to develop the most comfortable and aesthetic scars possible as children grow. Beyond the traditional compressions used by burn centers worldwide, Romans...
Awake intubation is especially crucial when the difficult airway arises from predictable and well-documented conditions like retractile scars and sequelae from facial and cervical burns, which have a very high prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa [6]. However, in low-resource settings, the equipment ...
The use of the amniotic membrane in pediatric patients with partial-thickness facial burns did not significantly improve healing time, length of hospital stay, or development of hypertrophic scars [22]. In addition, dehydrated and irradiated amniotic membranes have shown little promise [23]. Since ...

The stigmata of burn scars are plainly visible, but the injury to the patient is usually more than "skin deep," and with improvements in the management of burn patients and the herewith associated improved survival rates, these scars can create significant morbidity. Patients, besides the obvious...

Unfortunately, most previous studies have neglected the esthetic appearance of scars. In this study, we tried to combine surgical therapy and ultrapulse fractional CO2 laser (UFCL) to eliminate facial scars while restoring neck reconstruction and to establish the optimal conventional management for ...
