“…16 These different types of scars should be comprehensively evaluated before photoelectric therapy, including medical history, family history, local symptoms and signs of scar (color and texture) etc. 17 In order to facilitate the clinical application of photoelectric technology in the treatment of scars, it is recommended that patients with traumatic scars should be evaluated based on the scar color (red or not red), location (limbs, face, or other lesions), type (hypertrophic, non-hyperplastic), and patient characteristics (eg, skin type, psychological expectations) to guide clinicians to choose the appropriate treatment plan, photoelectric equipment, and monitor the treatment effects. 18…”

Traumatic scar is a disease that affected approximately tens of millions of patients worldwide. According to the histological and morphological properties of scars, the traumatic scar typically includes superficial scar, atrophic scar, hypertrophic scar, and keloid. Its formation is a natural consequence of wound healing, regardless of whether the wound was caused by trauma or surgery. However, the production of scars has considerable impacts on the physical and mental health of patients, even causing substantial aesthetic and functional impairments. Prevention or early treatment of scars is the most suitable therapeutic method, including surgical and non-surgical procedures; nevertheless, the benefits of non-operative therapies for scars are quite limited, and surgical treatments are always hard to achieve satisfying outcomes. Through the application of innovative technologies such as lasers, intense pulsed light, and radiofrequency, significant progress has been made in the treatment of traumatic scars. This review highlights the current advancements of photoelectric therapy for the prevention and treatment of various traumatic scars, which may throw light on innovative therapeutic options for scar therapies.
