Genetic Analysis of Keloids
Keloids have a strong genetic component. The goal of this study is to identify genes and regulatory elements on chromosomes that are the cause for keloids or contribute to keloid scarring.
Generation of an Artificial Intelligence Algorithm Based on the Analysis of Melanoma Peri-scar Dermatoheliosis, as a Predictive Factor of Response to Anti-PD-1
In the last decade, the advent of immunotherapies with inhibitors of immune checkpoints, such as anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4, has revolutionized the treatment of advanced or metastatic melanoma. However, the clinical benefit remains limited to a subset of patients. Identifying the patients most likely to benefit from these novel therapies (and …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Aesthetic Outcome of Intra-dermal Versus Transcutaneous Purse-string Closure
The purpose of this study is to determine whether intra-dermal versus transcutaneous purse-string closures have similar scar cosmesis and post-operative complications. The investigators will use a split wound model, where half of the wound will be closed with intra-dermal purse-string sutures and the other half will be closed with a …
Treatment of Hypopigmented Scars With Bimatoprost
Patients who have hypo-pigmented burn scar will have two scars chosen and randomized to treated scar and control scar. The subject will then have both scars treated with fractional ablative CO2 laser (FLSR). The treated scar will have bimatoprost delivered through the laser channels, while the control will have the …
Combined Hystroscopic and Laparoscopic Repair of CS Scar Disorder
Combined hystroscopic and laparoscopic repair of symptomatic uterine Niche as new technique to maximize resolution of symptoms after niche repair with concomitant increase in RMT
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 …
