Scars Issues

Scars Issues in Faisalabad Pakistan

Scars are permanently visible skin disorders that appear on wounds when healing. As part of this healing process an excess of collagen connective tissue may be formed, causing a thickening that is less appealing than the original skin.

Scars occur after the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis and/or the subcutaneous tissue) have been damaged. The skin consists of three layers, the epidermis (the upper skin), the dermis (the middle layer) and the hypodermis (the lower skin). If the epidermis has been damaged, for example by a superficial abrasion, no scar will be formed. A deep wound, such as cuts, usually goes through the dermis and hypodermis and will cause a scar.
