Methods:  Systematic review of all published studies with all research designs except  expert opinions. A search was made in Medline, Cochrane library, PEDro and  Google scholar; from the earliest date to September 2015 Intervention:  Different types of low level laser performed by the physical therapist in  wounded patients after burn. Outcome measures: wound healing. Results:  Only 3 studies met the inclusion criteria. There is conflicting evidence on  whether low level laser can accelerate the wound healing. The three studies  show significant acceleration of wound healing .All studies are of high  methodological quality except one study of poor quality. Conclusion: The  current level of evidence to support the effectiveness of low level laser on  wound healing after burn is good
