Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to compare the outcome of microneedling therapy with or without amnion bilayer sheeting on post-burn hypertrophic scar tissue. A clinical trial will be conducted with 17 samples, from September to December 2021.

Detailed Description

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

High degree burn injuries commonly result in abnormal scar formation, and therapy for this hypertrophic scar remains a challenge. For years, microoneedling has been used for treating hypertrophic scars, and an addition of amnion bilayer sheeting is expected to provide a more favorable outcome. This study aims to compare microneedling therapy with or without amnion bilayer sheeting on post-burn hypertrophic scars tissue. This is an interventional study with 17 samples, aged 18-50 years old. Therapeutic outcomes will be evaluated using visual analog scale, degree of erythema, patient's subjective evaluation, dermoscope, biopsy, and skin ultrasound.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

In this study, one scar in one subject, will be divided into two areas, one-half of the scar will receive an intervention of microneedling, and the other half will receive microneedling+amnion bilayer. Hence, one subject will receive both interventions at the same time

Microneedling and Amnion Bilayer

Microneedling is a dermaroller procedure that uses small needles to prick the skin. Amnion bilayer is used as an additional therapy after microneedling therapy.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Microoneedling and Amnion Bilayer

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Microneedling is conducted following a three-week application of tretinoin cream. Then, scar tissue that has been treated with microneedling is covered with amnion bilayer for 72 hours.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Microoneedling

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Microneedling is conducted following a three-week application of tretinoin cream. Then, scar tissue that has been treated with microneedling is covered with an antibacterial gauze dressing.
