Scars are part of the natural healing process. Your body builds tissue to replace damaged skin after surgery, injury or wound. excess tissue can leave a raised line on the site of the injury.
For some, having scar means living with trauma. They start developing feeling of shame, depression and anxiety.
Aggressive healing process, result in a thick raised scar that is much larger than the original injury.
This scar often develops after a burn. shortening of tissue during the healing process, pulls edge of the damaged area together. As the name suggest a contracture scar causing a tight area of skin.
It is similar to keloid scars however, hypertrophic scars don’t spread into surrounding area.
