The effect of light-emitting diode (590/830 nm)−based low-level laser therapy on posttraumatic edema of facial bone fracture patients

Posttraumatic edema in facial bone fracture patients may interfere with the operation field and delay the schedule. Thus, swiftly reducing the edema alleviates patient discomfort and advances the operation date. Ice packing and compression bandages are often used for such a purpose, but such methods are often inconvenient for the face. In this study, we aim to analyze the effect of light-emitting diode (LED) (590/830 nm)−based low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in posttraumatic edema in facial bone fracture patients.
