Introduction: The skin is the largest organ of the body that serves multiple functions essential to the
survival of the body, which may be compromised by the presence of burn, including thermal
regulation, prevention of fluid loss by evaporation, hermetic barrier against infection and Sensory
receptors that provide information about the environment. Aim of the work: The aim of this
prospective study was to evaluate the effect of platelet rich plasma application on different types post
burn scars. The hypothesis of the study is the previous options of the treatment of burn scars are
satisfactory, if we can prove that platelet rich plasma, with using micro needling treatment therapy
add an advantage in this field, it will be addition to the previous treatments. This study was conducted
to answer the following questions: If PRP effective in treatment of post burn scars?, Can PRP applied
to all types of post burn scars?, Is there are any complications?. Patients and Methods: This
prospective clinical study was performed at the Plastic surgery department, Minia University Hospital
in the period from February 2016 to July 2017, patients were counseled and signed informed consents,
skin punch biopsies and photographs were obtained from all participants in this study. Results: 1.
Demographic Data of the Patients: Twenty patients were enrolled in this study, the twenty patients
completed the whole treatment and follow up protocol. Twenty patients, including eighteen females
(90%) and two males (10%). Their ages ranged between 5 and 35 years (mean 16.7±10.8). All
patients skin photo types were II-IV. Discussion: Burn scars represent a major challenge. In addition
to significant morbidity to the scars themselves, side effects and lengthy courses of many therapeutic
modalities represents an additional burden to the patients (Brusselaers et al., 2010).
Recommendations: Further controlled studies with larger number of patients regarding the number of
sessions and interval between sessions are recommended to estbestablish efficacy of platelet rich
plasma therapy for the treatment of post burn scars.
