Usually children’s hyperplastic scars will not disappear even after a year of growing up.
Hyperplastic scars, most of which damage the dermis, appear as raised, uneven, congested and reddened surfaces. Often accompanied by burning pain and itching sensation. If a child has had a hyperplastic scar for a year, it usually does not go away on its own when it grows up.
If the hyperplastic scars are relatively small, most of them can be improved by scar removal ointment under the guidance of the doctor. However, if the hyperplastic scars are relatively large, they can be treated by laser, which can stimulate the regeneration of collagen tissues, break down the pigment cells, and close abnormal blood vessels, so as to achieve the purpose of removing the hyperplastic scars.
If a child has severe hyperplastic scars or if the scars do not improve, it is recommended that he or she seek medical attention in a timely manner.
