Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

CO2 laser with PRP

After anesthetizing the area and undergo one pass of ablative fractional CO2 laser (Smaxel, iDS, Korea) using the following settings: energy = 50 mJ; pulse duration = 2 ms; and density level = 15, PRP will be injected through nappage technique at 1 cm intervals for three treatment sessions at four-week intervals.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser combined with autologous platelet-rich plasma

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Carbon dioxide laser (Smaxel.878.4810) was FDA-approved device used in dermatology practice. PRP was described as having growth factors to be used to promote healing.
