Abstract
The role of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in the treatment of wounds has been widely used owing to its role in reduction of incidence of contracture and also improving the outcome in terms of wound bed preparation and post trauma scarring. Plenty of evidence is available regarding the same in literature. Here, in our study, we are evaluating the efficacy of use of LLLT in the treatment of adult scald burns.
