چکیده مقاله:

Survival after sever burn and other trauma has improved dramatically in the developed world. New strategies are required to manage increasing numbers of patients with functionally and cosmetically debilitating scars.The recent increase in the use of ablative fractional laser devices has fastened enthusiasm for laser-assisted delivery (LAD) of medications and other agents.LAD is a novel delivery method that enable the treating physician to uniformly distribute large molecules and even cells through narrow channels to the desired depth in cutaneous tissue. The parameters in LAD need to be adjusted to the patient, the skin condition and its location and the drug. With regards to scars, these channels may be used in the immediate postoperative period to deliver drugs and other substances to synergistically enhance the local therapeutic and remodeling response.
