  • Improvement of scar appearancePre-procedure, 1 month post procedure, 3 months post procedure

    Measured by use of the Vancouver Scar Scale; scores rating on vascularity, pigmentation, pliability, and height. Total score ranges from 0-13, with 0 being "normal" appearance.

  • Determine swallowing effectivenessPre-procedure, 1 month post procedure, 3 months post procedure

    Measured by use of the SWAL-QOL (Swallowing Quality of Life) score; this survey uses a Likert scale rating to ask questions regarding swallowing difficulties and associated quality of life impacts. Higher scores reflect lower impact on quality of life; lower scores would indicate higher impact.

  • Improvement in Pain ScorePre-procedure, 1 month post procedure, 3 months post procedure

    Measured by use of the Visual Analog Scale; scoring 0 for no pain-10 for unbearable pain.
