Treatment for Hypertrophic Scar in Bangalore
Hypertrophic scar is excessive production of fibrous tissue following any trauma or injury to the skin. Scars commonly appear after an injury to skin, which gradually reduce in size over time. But if the body has an abnormal response to the injury, it may cause the scar to become larger over time and is known as a hypertrophic scar.
A hypertrophic scar remains confined to the initial injury where as a keloid tends to extend beyond the injury.
