Abstract

Aim of this study was to assess the role of High level laser therapy like Er-YAG Laser in the management of scar. In our study, High level laser therapy like Er-YAG Laser helped in improving the scar which was objectively assessed by Vancouver scar scale(VSS) and clinical photography. The study shows that high level laser therapy like Er-YAG Laser therapy is an effective method in the management of scar.
