Case study |
N: 1, sex F, 25 years old. Use of manual techniques release associated with taping application about fibrosis and adhesions reapplied to every 7 days for 5 sessions |
Describe the taping effects in treatment of fibrosis and adhesions scars on postoperative liposuction |
Fibrosis |
Palpation and pho-todocumentation |
The presence of fibrosis was observed only through palpation. THE patient also reported improvement tissue mobility and appearance visual at the end of treatment |
| (Chi et al., 2016) |
Clinical trial no randomized. Groups: Phase remodeling; Phase proliferation |
N: 10, gender F, Age: 44 to 51 years old Method: 10 sessions, 2x/week. With intervals of 2 or 3 days. Remodeling phase - DLM and taping, associated with therapy combined (US + current excitomotor) Phase proliferation - DLM and taping |
Identify the effects of two protocols different in the treatment of fibrosis secondary to postoperative of abdominoplasty and liposuction of abdomen |
Fibrosis |
Palpation; Thermography of contact |
The comparative analysis of the evaluation initial and final, both from palpation as for thermography, it showed that there was a significant reduction (p< 0.0001) of the fibrotic condition presented by patients. |
| (Chi et al., 2021) |
Controlled clinical trials and non-randomized Group: GE – Treat. Intra-op GC |
N: 20 Age: 20 to 60 years Method: GE (10) - Taping Intraop. Intraop treatment and reevaluated on the 4th day post-op. GC (10) - without intervention |
Evaluate the occurrence of bruising in patients undergoing AP associated with traditional ABD LA |
Pain and bruise |
Documentation EVA photographic |
GE presented a better response in resolving bruising (p = 0.01) compared to the control group |
| (Chi et al., 2018) |
Controlled clinical study. (n=20) |
N: 20, sex F. Age: 18 and 56 years old. Total of 15 sessions. GE: pre, trans, and post-op care. GC: service on the 4th day. The resources used were DLM, microcurrents, red LED, and taping in the operated area |
Propose an unprecedented approach from the pre-, trans- and post-operative stages to prevent and minimize fibrosis, edema, and ecchymosis |
Ecchymosis, edema, and fibrosis |
Palpation, contact thermography;
photodocumentation, perimetry
|
The occurrence of fibrosis in the EG was statistically (p = 0.003) lower than in the CG; lower degree of fibrosis in EG (p=0.0002); and the initial thermography was predominantly normal in the EG (p=0.0002); no occurrence of intense edema in the EG (0.035); non-occurrence of bruising was greater in EG (p=0.0056) |

Experimental thesis |
N: 28 Age: 18 to 19 years old. After bichectomy. Group I: Control Side: Without intervention. Treated Side: 2 taping strips in the region external jugal of the face by 2 days, intraoperatively. Group II: Hemiface- laser low power 6J/cm2, intraoperative and day 2. Control Side: Without intervention |
Assess the effect taping and low laser power in post-op bichectomy |
Facial anthropometry and Edema |
Tape measure millimeter, for edema, they were carried out three times, being the first immediately before the procedure surgical and too much after 2 and 7 days. Ultrasound for pre, post immediate and after 6 months |
The results showed a reduction significant edema after taping for 2 days post-surgery (p<0.001), something that was not observed with laser therapy (p=0.127) |
| (Moraes, 2012). |
Case study |
N:l, female, 60 years old. 10 sessions, twice a week, application of DLM and taping, in each session |
Check the results before the application of DLM and taping, in pain, edema, bruise and pigmentation of abdomen and breasts on rehabilitation after liposuction to reconstruction mammary |
Pain, edema, hematoma and pigmentation |
Classification of intensity of pain: EVN and soft tissues: perimetry thoracic and abdominal and recording photographic |
Pain intensity was classified as 4 in the 1st assessment, with ↓, to 2 in the 2nd evaluation and to 0 in the EVN from the 3rd session. The perimeter ↓, in all places of measurement from the 1st assessment to the 6th session. The scars presented changes, as that on both breasts increased their mobility tissue and reduced adhesions |
