Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The pulsed dye laser is increasingly used in clinical settings to manage scars and shows promising outcomes.The pulsed dye laser targets at micro-vascular structures in scar tissues. This study aims to explore the vascularity changes in scars with pulsed dye laser during the scar formation process.
