The combination of surgical excision and ciNPWT showed no signs of keloid recurrence after 3 months, ensuring a successful treatment outcome.
Tension reduction sutures were applied immediately after surgery, and no complications such as infection were observed during the follow-up period.
The procedure involved continuous negative pressure therapy at -125 mmHg for 7 days, used as an effective adjuvant treatment strategy for keloids.
The findings reinforce the importance of targeting mechanical tension in preventing keloid recurrence, highlighting potential advancements in treatment methods.
