ABSTRACT

This article observes the clinical effect and safety of silk fibroin dressing for wound healing of atrophic acne scars after CO2 fractional laser. A total of 100 patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 50 cases in each group. After the laser surgery, the observation group used silk fibroin dressing (Fuxiang Sitai Medical Technology), and the control group used hyaluronic acid (HA) dressing. The indications of these two dressings are non-chronic wounds, including suture wounds after surgery and lasersurgery. The wound healing times were recorded. The results showed that the scab forming time (1.76±0.55 days vs 2.79±0.58 days), scab peeling time (4.35±0.66 days vs 6.31±1.24 days), and total wound healing time (3.51±0.52 days vs 5.18 ± 0.77 days) in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (P<0.05). At the same time, the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score (1.24 ± 0.67 vs 3.54 ± 0.54) and Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score (5.31 ± 0.68 vs 8.63 ± 0.93) in the observation group were significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). The adverse reaction rate in the observation group was 6.00% (3/50), which was significantly lower than 18.00% (9/50) in the control group (x2=10.733, P<0.01). In conclusion, the application of silk fibroin dressing can speed up tissue healing, reduce pain, improve scars, and lower the adverse reaction rate after CO2 fractional laser surgery.
