The appearance of scars affects patients' aesthetic and psychological aspects, as atrophic scars can result from previous surgeries or inflammatory/infectious conditions. Recently, non-surgical techniques have been introduced to improve scar appearance and enhance patient satisfaction. To our knowledge, there has been limited published medical research evaluating the effectiveness of polydioxanone threads in managing facial scars. This report aims to present three cases where scars were managed using these materials in the facial area with a follow-up of six months post-intervention. Based on the three presented cases, it is shown that there was an improvement in the color and texture of the scar, in addition to its reduced size with no sensation of pain or itching after the procedure. These findings suggest that the materials used are promising for effectively treating facial scars.
疤痕的外观会影响患者的美学和心理层面，因为萎缩性疤痕可能由先前的手术或炎症/感染性疾病引起。最近，非手术技术已被引入以改善疤痕外观并提高患者满意度。据我们所知，关于聚二氧六环酮线在治疗面部疤痕方面有效性的已发表医学研究有限。本报告旨在介绍三例在面部区域使用这些材料治疗疤痕的病例，并在干预后进行六个月的随访。基于所呈现的三例病例，结果显示疤痕的颜色和质地有所改善，此外其尺寸减小，术后无疼痛或瘙痒感。这些发现表明所使用的材料有望有效治疗面部疤痕。
