Keloids are benign fibro-proliferative scarring extending outside the initial wound. Different treatment modalities as intralesional corticosteroid injection, fractional COTo assess the efficacy of fractional COThe current study was conducted on 45 Egyptian participants with keloid scars at different sites of the body. They were classified into 3 groups treated by fractional COAfter treatment, there was a high statistically significant reduction in VSS among the 3 groups (P ≤ 0.001); the reduction was more in group II than in I and III. Also, a high statistically significant reduction in keloid scar thickness assessed by CDU was recorded (P ≤0.001 in group II and P ≤0.01 in group I and III).Combined therapy is favorable in the treatment of keloids. Trichloroacetic acid is a promising modality in treating keloid, hence it can be tried in different combinations. CDU is a promising method of keloids pre-and post-treatment assessment. |
