title: [A basic study and clinical trial of 585 nm pulsed dye laser in the treatment of congestive scars].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the biological effects of 585 nm pulsed dye laser (FLPDL) in the treatment of congestive scar.
  
  
  METHODS
  By histological study, collagen VG staining and microvascular staining, we investigated the changes of collagen fibers and the density of microvessels in the congestive scars after FLPDL treatment.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Histological and immunohistochemistry examinations showed that FLPDL achieved normal vascularity in the scar after over 3 times of treatment.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  PDL treatment can change fundamentally the physiology of wound healing if applied in the early phases.
