Abstract: Scar is a difficult problem in plastic surgery. Laser treatment of scar has gradually become a hot spot in recent years. Animal models can help researchers elucidate the underlying mechanism of scar and explore more possible therapies for laser treatment of scar. In this paper, the commonly used animal scar models and their applications in laser therapy experiments were reviewed.
