Research progress on early intervention of postoperative scar by SHEN Si, LI Zhouna, JIN Zhehu

“…Scars, the final outcome of postoperative wound healing, can be classified into physiological scars and pathological scars. Following surgical procedures, dysregulation of the inflammatory response, abnormal mechanical forces surrounding the wound, and hypoxia within the scar tissue may lead to an overproliferation of fibroblasts in postoperative scars, resulting in excessive deposition of extracellular matrix and ultimately developing pathological scars. …”
