Abstract
Aim of this case report is to assess the role of low level laser therapy in management of skin graft donor site healing. Clinical examination of the donor site before and after the use of low level laser therapy was done. Low level laser therapy is effective in healing of donor site wound. LLLT may be used in donor site healing.
