چکیده
OBJECTIVE To observe the effects of low intensity laser therapy in inflammation, wound healing and epithelialization of island skin grafts. METHODS Twenty rats were subjected to this grafting technique and divided subsequently into two equal groups, one treated with laser and the other control. RESULTS there was less inflammation, faster healing, epithelialization and keratinization in the laser-treated animals when compared to the untreated. CONCLUSION Low intensity laser therapy is helpful to island skin grafting.
