3dMDhead images were obtained preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 weeks, 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years. Head circumference, cephalic index, scaphocephalic index (SCI), frontal bossing index (FBI), occipital bullet index (OBI), and vertex narrowing index (VNI) were measured automatically using the 3dMDvultus Craniometrics Calculator.

SHAPE reads in a patient’s 3D photogram, automatically places a set of craniofacial landmarks, allows for their manual confirmation and correction, and automatically computes both a series of standard clinical craniofacial measurements and machine learning-based metrics of head development prior to building an analysis report for upload to the patient’s electronic medical record.

Compared to the sole use of laser, the combination of fractional carbon dioxide laser and rhEGF does not significantly enhance scar therapeutic effects. However, it does shorten the recovery period after laser treatment and improves the pore appearance.
