Abstract:
Children are a special group, which have unique physiological characteristics and are still in the period of physical and mental growth and development, thus the prevention and treatment of scar in children are different from that in adults. Scar management in children is a complex and multifaceted system engineering. The grade of scar in children needs to be adjusted according to the age, period, and severity.
