Ugly scar. Clinical Information. A mark left (usually on the skin) by the healing of injured tissue. Lingering mark left on the skin after a surface injury, formed in the process of wound healing; also includes the new, internal tissue formed in the process of repair, as in a scarred kidney.
Hypertrophic scars and keloids occur as a result of excessive scar formation. Keloids grow beyond the original wound and are unlikely to regress whilst hypertrophic scars are limited to the area of damaged skin.
Hypertrophic Scar a permanent mark on the skin caused by deposits of excessive amounts of collagen during wound healing. it is elevated and does not extend beyond the original boundaries of the wound; the elevation may stabilize or regress spontaneously.
