Laser treatment of keloids: a clinical trial and an in vitro study with Nd:YAG laser.

Abstract

Biochemical studies utilizing keloid fibroblast cultures revealed that Nd:YAG laser selectively suppressed collagen production by these cells. Based on these in vitro observations, eight patients with keloids were treated with Nd:YAG laser in a nondestructive manner. Results, with a 3-year follow-up, indicated flattening and softening of the lesions. Thus, the results suggest that Nd:YAG laser is an effective treatment modality for keloids, and its mechanism may involve bioinhibition of fibroblast functions.
