Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Early Wound Healing Score (EHS). Timepoint: Days 3, 7, 14 before the laser and also in the 21st day session. Method of measurement: By the Early Wound Healing Score (EHS) in the data collection form. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Patient evaluation of pain and discomfort in the surgical area. Timepoint: On each of the 3, 7, 14 days before the laser and also on the 21st day after surgery. Method of measurement: Assessment of pain and discomfort in the surgical area, which is scored by the patient himself with a visual analog scale in the form of a 10 cm linear segment. The lowest score indicates the least pain and the highest score indicates the most pain and discomfort in the surgical area. | — |
