Laser treatment with two medicines for burn scars
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 89 years old.
- You have raised, thick scars from a burn injury.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and if you could become pregnant, you agree to use birth control during the study.
- You have not had laser or injection treatments (triamcinolone or 5-FU) for these scars before.
- You do not have active infections, cancer, or other medical conditions that could make the treatment risky (like DPD deficiency or connective tissue disease).

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 compares two ways of caring for scars after body contouring surgery. Some people receive a laser treatment after surgery to see if it helps scars heal better and look less noticeable.
This trial tests if combining a special laser with a skin-lightening medicine can safely reduce dark marks from old burn scars.
This trial looks at whether a type of “fractional” laser can improve burn scars. It focuses on scars that are healing well past the initial recovery phase and compares laser therapy as a scar-management option.
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 treatments—pulsed high intensity laser and extracorporeal shockwave therapy—to see which works better for reducing hypertrophic scars (raised, thick scars) caused by burns. If you have a burn scar and are between 20 and 45 years old, this trial may help improve the appearance and flexibility of your scar.
