This [clinical trial] compares the [efficacy of bleomycin tattooing] with [cryotherapy combined with intralesional triamcinolon injection] for the [treatment of keloids and hypertrophic scars]. The study used [a randomized design] to evaluate the [therapeutic response] in [two groups of patients]. The researchers found that [bleomycin tattooing] was significantly [more effective] than [cryotherapy combined with intralesional triamcinolon injection] in [larger lesions].

Bleomycin Tattooing: A Viable Option for Large Lesions

The study found that [bleomycin tattooing] was [more effective] than [conventional treatment] in [lesions larger than 100 mm2]. This finding suggests that [bleomycin tattooing] may be a [valuable tool] for [treating larger keloids and hypertrophic scars].

Improving Treatment Outcomes for Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars

The research highlights the [potential of bleomycin tattooing] as a [effective treatment option] for [keloids and hypertrophic scars]. Further research is needed to [optimize the technique] and [explore its long-term effects].

Dr.Camel's Conclusion

Just as a camel can withstand harsh desert conditions, [keloids and hypertrophic scars] can be challenging to treat. This study suggests that [bleomycin tattooing] may offer a [promising solution] for [larger lesions] and improve [treatment outcomes] for patients.
