Vibration Anesthesia for Pain Reduction During Intralesional Steroid Injection for Keloid Treatment.

TLDR
Vibration anesthesia is a promising option for reducing pain during keloid treatment with intralesional steroid injection, and patients tolerated this therapy well.
Abstract
BACKGROUNDPatients suffer significant pain during intralesional steroid injection treatment for keloids and hypertrophic scars. Vibration anesthesia has been shown to effectively and safely alleviate pain sensations, likely by reducing pain transmission from peripheral receptors to the brain.OBJECTI

Effectiveness of vibratory stimulation on needle-related procedural pain in children: a systematic review protocol.

TL;DR: Vibratory stimulation was effective at reducing NRP pain in children; however, blinding was not possible in the trials, and heterogeneity was high, therefore, the confidence of the evidence is low.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Three Noninvasive Analgesic Techniques for the Prevention of Pain During Facial Injections.

TL;DR: Vibration analgesia effected significantly better pain control than cold and anesthetic cream, and the choice of anesthetic method should be adapted to the preferences and experiences of each patient to optimize pain control in procedures that involve subcutaneous injections.

Clinical pain evaluation with intraoral vibration device during local anesthetic injections

TL;DR: There was significant reduction in the pain encountered during local anesthetic injection with the use of intra-oral vibration device, and the mean VAS score was significantly lower for actual pain when compared to anticipated pain in vibration group.
