The main goal of burns management is quick recovery by restoring optimal function and maintaining good aesthetic results. Objectives: This study aims to determine effectiveness comparison of aloe vera gel with 1% silver sulfadiazine cream on IIA degree burn wound management. Materials and Methods: This study was a clinical trial of 20 samples divided into 1% silver sulfadiazine group and aloe vera gel groups. Comparative analysis using independent t-test, paired t-test, Wilcoxon test and Mann-Whitney test. Results: There were significant epithelial differences on 4th day to 14th day in each group, epithelialization in aloe vera gel group was 95.90+6.48% (p=0.005) and epithelialization in 1% silver sulfadiazine group was 84.76+11.72% (p=0.005). There were significant epithelial differences between aloe vera gel compared 1% silver sulfadiazine cream on 7th day (p=0.014), 10th day (p=0.015) and 14th day (p=0.021), but there was no significant epithelial differences on 4th day.
