Healing of Open Upper Lip Vermillion Wounds Irradiated with CO(2) Laser Immediately After Injury

Objective: To evaluate the healing of open upper lip vermillion wounds irradiated with CO(2) laser immediately after injury. Background: There are reports of using CO(2) laser therapy on healed wounds for scar tissue reduction. However, limited data exist regarding its use immediately after an injur...

description Objective: To evaluate the healing of open upper lip vermillion wounds irradiated with CO(2) laser immediately after injury. Background: There are reports of using CO(2) laser therapy on healed wounds for scar tissue reduction. However, limited data exist regarding its use immediately after an injury. Thus, the role of CO(2) laser in wound healing remains unclear. Methods: Two patients with open upper lip vermillion wounds were treated using CO(2) laser irradiation to the area postsuturing. Results: Good functional and aesthetic results were obtained from the therapy, with no postoperative pain complaints or infection. Conclusions: CO(2) laser irradiation, performed immediately after an injury, could be an effective treatment option for open vermillion wounds.
