Correcting Post-Burn Scar Using PCI

The document discussed the use of percutaneous collagen induction (PCI) with microneedling as a treatment for post-burn scars. This technique involved creating micropunctures in the skin to disrupt altered collagen and elastic fibers, promoting the formation of new tissue. PCI was applicable to various scar types, skin areas, and ages, even in regions with fewer sebaceous glands. The treatment resulted in improvements in the color, texture, depth, relief, and flexibility of scars, addressing common post-burn complaints such as neuropathic pain and itching.
