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 …
Microneedling for Burn Hypertrophic Scars
Approximately 33 to 91% of severe burn victims will develop hypertrophic scars. Hypertrophic scars are defined as erythematous (red), raised and rigid scars that can cause pain and itching, among other things. They cause psychological distress and affect the quality of life of burn victims. Microneedling is a technique that …
Inflammation Markers in Fluid Aspirate From a Scarred Uterine vs. a Normal Uterine Cavity
A prospective study that will take place in the hydrosonography clinic, comparing patients with an intact uterus to those who had a caesarean section. Eligible patients will preform a transvaginal ultrasound for evaluation of presence of a niche. After fixation of the transcervical catheter, we will flush 2 ml sterile …
Safety and Efficacy Evaluation of the Mosaic Ultra Device
Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Mosaic Ultra 1550nm system for the treatment of skin tone and texture, facial rejuvenation, photoaging, wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, acne vulgaris and hair loss.
Platelet Rich Plasma for Uterine Scar
When vessel wall injury occurs, platelets become activated, releasing more than 30 bioactive proteins, many of which have a fundamental role in hemostasis, inflammation and ultimate wound healing. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a modification of fibrin glue made from autologous blood, is being used to deliver growth factors in high concentration …
Evaluating the Efficacy of Force Modulating Tissue Bridge Device in Preventing Hypertrophic Scars Following Gender-Affirming Mastectomy
The goal of this randomized, prospective, interventional clinical trial is to evaluate the use of Brijjit® in reducing the incidence of hypertrophic scarring in individuals undergoing gender-affirming bilateral double incision mastectomies at a single-institution, single-surgeon site (Esther A. Kim, MD). Patients will serve as a self-control (one side of the …
Nonsilicone Gel Sheet for Burn Hypertrophic Scars
Overview: The application of gel sheets holds promise for both the prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scar after deep dermal injuries. Although some positive results have been published, a Cochrane review of the data concluded that the trials were of poor quality therefore only provided weak evidence for their benefit. …
1470nm Laser for the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia and Scarring Alopecia
Single-center, open-label, baseline-controlled, pilot study evaluating the use of a Nonablative 1470 nm laser for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia and scarring alopecia.
Novel Strategies for Reducing Burn Scar Itch
The purpose of the study is to see whether using diphenhydramine (Benadryl), famotidine (Pepcid), and cromolyn sodium will decrease burn scar itch.
The Effects of Prophylactic Limited Palmar Fasciectomy on Surgical Outcomes and Scarring
Research is instrumental for improving medical care and the patient experience. Finding new surgical techniques can create better outcomes and minimize recovery time and complications for patients. Some patients undergoing trigger finger surgery with a pre-existing Dupuytren's cord may develop a thickened surgical scar after surgery, which can cause discomfort, …
