Most people have at least one scar, and some people have many scars. Scars can occur anywhere on the body, but they are most commonly found on the arms, legs, and abdomen. Scars form when the skin is damaged. The body produces new collagen fibers to heal the wound, and these new collagen fibers are what form a scar. Luckily, Executive Medical can help clean up those scars.
What Are Scars?
Scars can be caused by many things, including accidents, surgery, burns, and acne. Scars can also be caused by skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Some scars are hereditary and cannot be prevented.
There are many different types of scars, and each scar is unique. Some scars are smooth and flat, while others are raised and bumpy. Scar tissue can also be different colors, ranging from pink to brown to black.
Most scars will fade over time, but some scars never completely go away. In some cases, aesthetics treatments may be necessary.
