Sažetak
Keloids and hypertrophic scars are the consequence of excessive collagen deposition during the process of wound healing. The increasing number of operations and injuries, the widely accepted culture of piercing, and higher cosmetic criteria have led to a greater interest in the methods of their treatment. Due to the lack of an appropriate animal model, the respective research is based solely on clinical experience. A great number of therapeutic options indicate that no ideal therapy has yet been found. Use of multiple modalities is often necessary to treat the lesions successfully. The molecular, biochemical and clinical features of keloids and hypertrophic scars as well as treatment modalities are discussed.
