Keloid is a benign, long-lasting fibroproliferative mass of dermal connective tissue that forms at the site of cutaneous injury as a result of an unregulated repair and healing process at specific anatomical locations, with a preference for the highly pigmented ethnic group. The use of clips or splints to apply pressure to the affected area is common treatment of keloids; nevertheless, controlling the volume and direction of the keloids might be challenging. The appliance's unique design allows for more precise control over the amount and direction of pressure applied to the scar tissue.
瘢痕疙瘩是一种良性的、持续存在的真皮结缔组织纤维增生性肿块,在皮肤损伤部位形成,是特定解剖位置的修复和愈合过程不受控制的结果,在色素沉着较高的种族中更为常见。使用夹子或夹板对受影响区域施加压力是瘢痕疙瘩的常见治疗方法;然而,控制瘢痕疙瘩的体积和生长方向可能具有挑战性。该器械的独特设计能够更精确地控制施加在瘢痕组织上的压力大小和方向。
