Tracking scar changes with 3D cameras after surgery
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study uses special 3D cameras to measure the size of raised scars (called hypertrophic scars or keloids) over time. The goal is to see if these cameras can be a helpful tool for doctors to track how scars change after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery and developed a raised scar (hypertrophic scar or keloid).
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You are willing to have your scar measured with a 3D camera.
- You can understand the study information and give written consent.

This study looks at how keloid scars form by studying the skin cells. You may be able to join if you are at least 18 years old, have a keloid, and are already planning to have surgery to remove it.
This trial tests a new way to treat keloids by injecting medicine directly into the scar. It may help people with thick, raised scars that don't go away on their own.
This trial tests a special gel designed to prevent raised, thick scars (hypertrophic scars) after surgery or injury. If you have a new scar from a C-section, breast implant, or clean cut, this study may help reduce scarring.
This study compares two types of ultrasound (2D and 3D) to check the scar from a past C-section. It aims to see which method gives better pictures, with or without using a saline infusion (SIS) to help see the scar more clearly.
This trial tests whether a special microporous tape (a gentle adhesive tape) can help improve raised scars from surgery. It may be a good option if you have a hypertrophic scar that is not infected and you are otherwise healthy.
This study checks how well the face looks balanced (symmetrical) after people have surgery to rebuild the middle or lower face. It uses a 3D camera to measure results, and the goal is to help improve future surgeries.
