Abstract:   (252 Views)
  • Amniotic membrane, an effective substitute in reconstructing soft tissue defects, facilitates wound healing, and scar reduction, and contributes to skin beauty enhancement. This transparent membrane rich in growth factors, cytokines, and matrix proteins facilitates tissue repair. Its utilization in medicine, including ophthalmology and plastic surgery, significantly improves treatment outcomes. In the present study, a case of severe soft tissue injury reconstruction in a two-year-old child is reported. The use of amniotic membrane for reconstructing skin injuries and traumas in the forehead area improves wound healing, reduces scarring, and enhances beauty outcomes. This approach is one of the effective methods in managing facial traumatic injuries in children, with the ability to accelerate wound healing, reduce scarring, improve patients' quality of life, and enhance beauty outcomes.
