Plasma therapy for improving scars
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a treatment that uses plasma (a part of your blood) to improve the look and feel of scars. It may help reduce symptoms like itching or pain and make scars less noticeable.

This trial tests a special cold plasma treatment applied during surgery in the groin to see if it helps reduce wound healing problems after surgery for blocked leg arteries. It may benefit people at higher risk for wound complications.
This study tests a special plasma treatment (a part of your blood that may help healing) for many types of wounds. It aims to see if this treatment helps wounds close faster and better than standard care.
This trial tests a new combination treatment using platelet-rich fibrin (a concentrate from your own blood) and a fractional CO2 laser to improve the look and texture of burn scars. If you have a mature, small burn scar, this could help soften and flatten it.
This study tests whether a special cold plasma treatment (a type of energized gas) can safely help heal chronic wounds that haven't improved after several weeks. Cold plasma may help clean wounds and reduce bacteria, potentially speeding up healing.
This study tests an experimental injection (9MW3811) to help improve the appearance and feel of thick, raised scars that haven't improved on their own in at least 6 months. The treatment may reduce redness, firmness, and other signs of abnormal scarring.
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.
