However, it is associated with disadvantages such as pain, prolonged erythema, swelling, crusting, infections, pigmentary changes, and scarring.

We recorded time to re\u2010epithelization and duration of post\u2010treatment erythema. Any side effects observed at follow\u2010up or reported by the patient were recorded.

One patient had hyperpigmentation, one infection, one hypo\u2010pigmentation, and one ulcer. All side effects resolved without complications.
