Abstract

The effectiveness of low level laser therapy (LLLT) for macrodactyly to reduce the bulk of the tissue has not been discussed much in the literature. Although low level laser therapy & its effectiveness and the process by which it reduces body fat from fat cell is inadequate this study tries to review the literature & its application. In our study low level laser therapy was used in a subject with left big toe macrodactyly to evaluate the efficacy.
