The known effect of ultrasound is to promote healing in the inflammatory and proliferative stages. It stimulated the synthesis of growth factors that in turn increased the strength and elasticity of the collagen fibers formed.
Dry needling increases tension, resulting in the change of shape and breakdown of the scar tissue. Kinesiology tape will accelerate the scar healing and also ensures scar smoother skin.
