Abstract

The role of low-level laser therapy in the treatment of wounds has been widely used owing to its role in the 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 the literature. Here, in our study, we are evaluating the efficacy of the use of LLLT in the treatment of adult scald burns.
