The remainder of the Danish army had sought refuge within the walls of Helsingborg, and Stenbock avoids attacking them as they have too advantageous a position.

He instead besieges the city and invites the Danes to capitulate, but von Dewitz dismisses the offer.

A Swedish council of war determines that Swedish forces are too weak to storm the city, and instead starts a bombardment of the city.

The last remains of the Danish army leaves Scania by March 5 (O.S) after slaughtering all their horses and sabotaging their cannons.

The Danes have lost over seventy five hundred killed, wounded, or captured.

The Swedish losses amount to twenty-eight hundred dead or wounded.

The Danish army leaves Scania, never to return.

The city of Helsingborg has been hit hard by the battle, due both to the Swedish bombardment, which has destroyed its buildings, and all the remaining human and horse cadavers, which have poisoned the wells.

A plague epidemic now harrows the town and further reduces its population.

Helsingborg will not recover until the middle of the nineteenth century.
