Abstract
Studies of quality of life measures in scar patients reveal significant interference with physical comfort as well as in social and professional life. The lay population often refers to a scar as an unsightly healed wound. Conversely, surgeons tend to think of surgical scars as an expected outcome of a violation of the dermis. Before initiating treatment, the physician must take the time to understand and diagnose each element. The extent of scar must be considered along with the patient’s intent in getting treatment.
