Endermotherapy With Burn Hypertrophic Scars

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Mechanical massage or endermotherapyTM is applied to scar tissue with the intended therapeutic value being the promotion of structural or physiological changes. These proposed changes are meant to induce more pliability, so that skin possesses the strength and elasticity required for normal mobility. The advantage of mechanical massage compared to manual massage is that it provides a standard dosage using rollers and suction valves to mobilize the tissue. However, research documenting and supporting this effect is lacking. The objective of this proposal is to document the effect of 12 weeks of endermotherapy treatment on hypertrophic scar characteristics, including erythema, pigmentation, pliability, and thickness in adult burn survivors and their subjective evaluation of itch, pain and overall scar outcome through a prospective, randomized, controlled, within-patient, single-blinded study.

Clinical Trial Description
