Have you experienced burns, injuries, and medical procedures that left a scar? Scars are a natural occurrence as your body heals from an injury. The appearance of scars can vary depending on the size and location of the wound as well as your age, genetics, sex, or ethnicity.
Did you know there are several types of scars?
- Keloid scars – These scars occur when your body has an overly aggressive response while healing from injury. They are raised and extend beyond the area of the original incision or injury. These are especially common in darker skin tones.
- Contracture scars – Often a result of burns, these scars tighten the skin and can impair movement.
- Hypertrophic scars – These raised, red scars are similar to keloid scars, but they do not extend beyond the injury site.
- Acne scars – Many people with severe acne are left with pits and angular, wavelike scars.
