Use of Botulinum Toxin A in Direct Eyebrow Lift Scar
Prospective, controlled and randomized study in which participants indicated for surgery to direct eyebrow lift will be randomized into two groups. In addition to surgery, the patients will be treated with botulinum toxin in one eyebrow and saline (placebo) in the other site. The patients participate as treatment and placebo …
Tissue-engineered Skin Graft Repair of Autologous Scar Dermal Scaffolds
Hypertrophic scar is an inevitable outcome of wound repair. It affects the appearance and some scar contracture often leads to joint dysfunction.Patients have low quality of life, long treatment cycle, heavy social burden and high medical costs.Skin grafting is currently the gold standard for scar repair.However, there are often insufficient …
Aesthetic Outcome of Tie-over Bolster Application in Surgical Wounds
When patients have surgery on the head and face, stitches are the standard way to close the wound. Wounds always result in a scar, but doctors are always looking for ways to reduce scarring. Several studies have been done to test ways to close wounds that reduce scarring. One idea …
Pinch Grafting Versus Second Intention Wound Healing for Mohs Micrographic Surgery Defects on the Scalp
Oftentimes, following surgery on the scalp, wounds are left to heal by themselves. This is called "second intention." Open wounds left to heal on the scalp often take 8 weeks or more to completely heal. The investigators are investigating how second intention closure compares to another established reconstruction technique, called …
Outcomes of Running Locking Suture vs Standard Running Suture in Surgical Wounds
When patients have surgery on the head and face, stitches are the standard way to close the wound. Wounds always result in a scar, but doctors are always looking for ways to reduce scarring. Several studies have been done to test ways to close wounds that reduce scarring. The most …
Influence of Sun Protection and Linear Repair of Cutaneous Surgical Defects
The purpose of this study is to determine the potential influence of sun protection on the aesthetic outcome of post-surgical scars following the reconstruction of Mohs micrographic surgery defects via linear repair. This study will be performed as a randomized split-wound study. Half of the wound will be treated with …
Silicone Taping for the Improvement of Abdominal Donor Site Scars
This study will look at silicone tape compared to the current no dressing standard at the investigators institution, to determine if silicone tape provides a significant improvement in post-abdominoplasty scar appearance. Silicone tape will be added to half of the abdominoplasty incision of patients undergoing abdominally-based breast reconstruction procedures two …
Effectiveness of Dry Needling in Linear Scar Tissue
Scar tissue can cause serious complications that significantly impact a patient's quality of life. Common complications include stiffness and contractions, which can restrict joint mobility and make daily activities challenging. In severe cases, these limitations can even prevent patients from fulfilling their work responsibilities or engaging in activities they enjoy. …
Dose Regimen Study of SLI-F06 in Healthy Volunteers
Multi-center, dose-regimen, double-blind study evaluating the safety and efficacy of 4 doses of SLI-F06 compared with vehicle for improvement in scar appearance
Optimizing Postpartum Pelvic Health Through Self-Scar Tissue Massage of Episiotomy and Perineal Scar Tissue A Pilot RCT
The goal of this Pilot Randomized Control Trial (RCT) is to determine if a larger RCT evaluating the effect of self-scar tissue massage of episiotomy and/or vagina/perineal tear scar tissue on pelvic health outcomes is feasible. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the investigators recruit 130 participants …
