About Scars
A scar is a natural part of the healing process after the skin is injured. While minor cuts and scrapes may heal without leaving scars, deeper injuries, burns, surgeries, or certain skin conditions can result in noticeable scarring.
Different Types of Scars
Scars vary based on the injury’s nature, size, and your body’s healing process. Common types include:
- Acne Scars: Small, pitted scars that result from untreated or severe acne breakouts.
- Atrophic Scars: Depressed or sunken scars caused by a lack of collagen, often resulting in uneven skin texture.
- Hypertrophic Scars & Keloids: Raised and thickened scars caused by excessive tissue growth following an injury.
