Abstract
Burn is defined as a traumatic injury of thermal origin, which affects the organic tissue. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has gained great prominence as a treatment in this type of injury.The aim of this case report is to assess the role of Low level laser therapy in healing of wounds in burn wounds in paediatric burns patients. Normal wound healing takes around 3 weeks with epithelisation at 1mm/day. The advanced wound healing therapies help in expediting the advancement of epithelial edge of the wound.
