Fat grafting for new burn scars on chest, shoulders, and back
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial uses your own fat (nano-fat) to improve the look and feel of burn scars that are less than 6 months old on your chest, shoulders, or back. It aims to reduce scar hardness and redness, making the scar blend better with your skin.

This trial tests whether using your own fat cells can help heal wounds or burns that need surgery. It is for adults who have had a fasciotomy, full-thickness skin loss, or burns, and are willing to receive a fat graft.
This trial tests if using your own fat cells during scar surgery helps heal better. If you need surgery to release a tight scar, you may be able to receive a fat graft from your own body.
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 trial tests whether a “microsurfaced” donor-skin graft can heal deep burn wounds (partial- or full-thickness burns) after recent injury. It may help improve healing when the burn area is large enough and not infected.
This study tests a laser treatment that delivers medicine directly into burn scars to make them flatter and less painful. It compares two combinations of medications to see which works better.
This trial compares two methods of using your own fat to improve old burn or accident scars. It tests whether injecting the fat or using a special stamp-like device (microneedling) works better for making scars softer and less noticeable.
