Laser treatment with or without PDRN for facial scars
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.

This study tests a combination of two procedures: injecting your own fat (nanofat) into depressed scars and treating them with a special laser (fractional CO2 laser). The goal is to see if this combination improves the look of scars left by injuries better than laser alone.
This study compares two different injectable treatments for deep, rolling acne scars. Half of your face will receive one type of injection and the other half will receive a different type, to see which works better at smoothing out scarring.
This study tests whether combining your own blood proteins (PRP) with a fractional CO2 laser can improve moderate-to-severe acne scars more than laser alone. You would have 3 treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart.
This study compares two treatments for acne scars: a carbon dioxide laser and platelet-rich plasma with microneedling. It aims to see which works better for improving the look of acne scars.
This study tests a combination of platelet-rich fibrin (a healing substance from your own blood) and fractional CO2 laser therapy to improve the look and feel of burn scars that have fully healed. It is for people with mature, moderate-sized burn scars.
This trial compares two scar treatments: using a fractionated CO2 laser to deliver either insulin or platelet-rich plasma into atrophic acne scars. The goal is to see which approach improves the appearance of sunken scars more effectively.
