Overview

Burn scars are lasting marks that form on the skin after a burn injury has healed. These scars can vary in appearance, from discoloration to raised areas or contractures that limit movement. Burn scar treatment is a vital process aimed at improving the appearance and function of the skin, while also enhancing a person’s overall physical and emotional well-being. Treatment is highly personalized, depending on the burn’s depth, scar type, and individual skin characteristics.
