Using lasers in diabetic wound healing.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lasers are a treatment choice that appeals to patients. Early research suggests that laser therapy may have a role in hastening wound healing. Attempts have been made to use helium neon, CO2, and KTP lasers in encouraging wound healing in diabetics. We will review the English literature related to laser use in diabetic wound healing and discuss the concept of the use of nondestructive lasers for biostimulation. Further research is needed to assess effectiveness of biostimulation for diabetic wound healing.
