Abstract
Case Report: Effectiveness of Pulsed Dye Laser 585 nm in Treating Multiple Keloids in Young Female with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) had Multiple Plastic Surgeries, Jeddah, 2017
Highlights
Keloids are a common disorder of fibrosis, secondary to dermal injury after trauma, burns, or surgical excision [1]
Flash lamp pulsed dye laser (FPDL) is a non-ablative technology that has an excellent reputation in vascular lesion treatment
Recent research indicates that the growth of keloids is regulated by various growth factors, such as TGF-b transforming growth factor b, CTGF (Connective Tissue Growth Factor), VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor), HSP47 (Heat Shock Protein-47), HSP-27 (Heat Shock Protein-27 ), PDGF (Platelet Derived Growth Factor), IGF (Insulin-like Growth Factor), IL (Interleukin), and SP (Substance P), which can all promote the proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen synthesis in keloids
