“…Another possible reason is that the reactivation of BCG scars is attributed to vaccine-induced immune activation under T cell bystander stimulation, whereas scars caused by trauma do not exhibit a similar phenomenon ( 28 ). Besides, some viruses, such as human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and human papillomavirus (HPV), can result in healing dysregulation and infective dermatitis ( 1 , 30 ). Meanwhile, the COVID-19 vaccine is a type of virus vaccine.…”

BackgroundSafety concerns are one of the most common reasons for COVID-19 vaccination refusal. In the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery, whether COVID-19 vaccination influences wound healing and scar formation is worthy of special attention.MethodsIn this study, patients with adult trauma with subcutaneous sutures placed by a single plastic surgeon in a single center were included. The vaccination interval was defined as the interval between the last dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and when surgical sutures were introduced. The patients were categorized by vaccination interval into three groups of <1, 1–3, and ≥3 months. Wound healing and scar formation were rated according to the Wound Assessment Inventory (WAI) and Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) in the groups at 7 days and after a 3-month follow-up.ResultsAll total and individual scores of WAI and POSAS were not significantly different among the groups.ConclusionNo differences in wound healing and scar formation were observed in patients with different COVID-19 vaccination intervals. Thus, it is not necessary to postpone COVID-19 vaccination, as the vaccine does not affect wound healing and scar formation in patients undergoing surgery. This study aimed to eliminate concerns and hesitancy in receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.
