What is the scar physique? It's because of this

People with scar-prone constitution are a group of people for whom scars are difficult to remove and the wounds are not easy to heal. People with scar-prone constitution will have certain difficulties in removing scars. This is the relationship between scar-prone constitution and keloids.

When human skin is traumatized, a normal and inevitable physiological reaction will occur during the natural healing process of the wound or wound surface, that is, a scar, which is also an inevitable result of the trauma healing process. People with a scar-prone physique have scars that are a special reaction to human body trauma, and this group of people accounts for a very small proportion.

Scar is a general term for the morphological and histopathological changes in normal skin tissue caused by various traumas. The essence of a scar is an abnormal and unhealthy tissue that does not have the normal skin tissue structure and physiological function and has lost its normal tissue vitality. Scars not only destroy the beauty of the body surface, but also hinder the physiological functions of related tissues or organs, and even cause deformities.

The relationship between scar-prone constitution and keloids

People with a scar-prone physique are rare. The outward manifestation of their skin is that after the wound heals, the surface scar continues to increase in size, which not only affects the appearance, but also causes local pain, redness and itching. Scar contraction also affects the normal movement of the body's functions. Because there are very few people with a scar-prone physique, some books also refer to people with keloids as having a scar-prone physique. Keloids are characterized by scars that grow outward after the wound heals, protruding from the skin surface, being hard, and may also feel red and painful, but after growing to a certain size, they will no longer continue to expand.

People with scar-prone constitution may develop scar hyperplasia like keloids after any part of their body is injured, while keloids can appear in certain parts of the normal population or heal scars caused by certain reasons. In other words, keloids are an inevitable manifestation of a scar-prone constitution, but people who develop keloids do not necessarily have a scar-prone constitution. This type of people after the wound heals. Surface scars continue to grow, not only affecting the appearance, but also causing local pain, redness and itching. Scar contraction also affects functional movement.
