Filter by:This is a split-scar study with a target sample size of 20. There are two interventions: fractional erbium:YAG-assisted drug delivery of 5-fluorouracil and fractional erbium:YAG-assisted drug delivery of triamcinolone acetonide. Patients will undergo treatments in a series of 4 treatments at approximately 4 week ± 1 week intervals. Investigators will monitor for safety and continued benefit after the end of the interventional treatment.
Keloid formation in response to skin trauma inflicts about 18 million individuals. A key impediment in successful treatment of keloids is that the predominant treatments, particularly surgical excision and shaving, tend to initiate the regrowth of the keloid at the excision site, and therefore, recurrence rates are high. There is much evidence to demonstrate that following surgical excision procedures with a course of radiation therapy can significantly reduce recurrence rates to as little as 10% or below. This prospective study is to evaluate this claim.
To evaluate the safety, and efficacy of the ASR device for the temporary improvement in the appearance of a keloids.

The main purpose of this study is to see if there is clinical benefit of using Biovance in reduction of the recurrence of keloids when used to revise them. It will also assess the postoperative complications.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a developmental formulation is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in the treatment of hypertrophic and keloid scars.
To clarify the mechanisms of Keloid scar formation. Elucidate the action and therapeutic value of 5-FU in Keloid scar treatment Identify the genetic link with Keloid scar formation. Quantify the psychological/social impact in keloid scarring patients
The purpose of this study is: - to identify how knowledge about keloid scars and self-treatments differs between patients who use the Internet as a source of information and patients who do not - to determine if patients who are at a high risk of developing additional keloid scars are more or less likely to change their behavior based on an educational information talk about keloid scar prevention
