Scarring is a natural healing process, which occurs after an injury. Its appearance and treatment depends on multiple factors such as the depth and size of the wound or the cut. Burn injury or other trauma condition, including surgery can lead to a scar. There are various types of scars such as keloid scars, contracture scars, acne scars, and hypertrophic scars. Keloid scars are formed due to over aggressive healing process. Increasing incidents of burns, new product approvals, increasing number of surgeries, and increasing collaborations between key players is expected to drive global scar treatment market during the forecast period.
