Generally, the clinical treatment means to remove the scars of boiling water scald, mainly laser treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.1, laser treatment: you can use ultra-pulse carbon dioxide fractional laser treatment, fractional laser is the use of photothermal effect, so that the photothermal energy directly reaches the deep layers of the skin, prompting the skin to form a new collagen tissue, to improve the surface of the skin protruding or sunken scars. It can also reduce or improve pigmentation, which can achieve more ideal results in treating open water scald scars.

If the scar hyperplasia is more obvious, glucocorticoid drugs, such as compound betamethasone injection, trichostatin injection, etc., can be injected into the scar, which is conducive to the softening, absorption and atrophy of the scar. After laser treatment, epidermal growth factor gel can be used to promote local skin repair; 3, surgical treatment: more serious scald scars, if the scope of the wave is wider, and even affect the normal function of the local, can be surgical means of treatment will be scar excision, and then skin grafting or do flap transfer, in order to repair the scar.
