The investigators retrospectively reviewed burn patients who had undergone autologous split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) with same artificial dermis between January 2012 and September 2019.

Conditions

  • Burn Scar

Interventions

OTHER

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy

ESWT was performed around the primary treatment site at 100 impulses/cm2, an energy flux density(EFD) of 0.05 to 0.30 mJ/mm2, frequency of 4Hz, and 1000 to 2000 impulses were administered at 1-week intervals for 6 sessions.
