Exogenous electric current can reduce the formation of hypertrophic scars.

Abstract

Exogenous electric current has been shown to influence the healing of wounds in both human subjects and animal models. We examined the effect of positive polarity electrical stimulation on the resultant scar thickness of surgically induced wounds, and report that electrotherapy can reduce scar thickness and hypertrophic scar formation.
