Normotrophic scar is a type of scar (according to the degree of ratio of the height of the scar relief with the surface of the surrounding skin and the volume of scar tissue), which is on the same level with the surrounding skin. Normotrophic scars are usually pale or flesh-colored and have elasticity close to normal tissue.
In the scar, throughout the entire period of maturation, the process of remodeling constantly occurs - the newly formed tissue, in response to any external influences, synthesizes or destroys collagen fibers. Therefore, it is very important to create optimal conditions for the formation of a normotrophic (correct) scar. By resting the injured tissue, the likelihood of ending up with a smoother scar increases.
