Timing is important to wound healing. Critically, the timing of wound re-epithelialization can decide the outcome of the healing. [11] If the epithelization of tissue over a denuded area is slow, a scar will form over many weeks, or months; [12] [13] If the epithelization of a wounded area is fast, the healing will result in regeneration.
Scar free healing is the process by which significant injuries can heal without permanent damage to the tissue the injury has affected. In most healing, scars form due to the fibrosis and wound contraction, however in scar free healing, tissue is completely regenerated. During the 1990s, published research on the subject increased; it is a ...
In 1997, it was proven that wounds created with an instrument that are under 2mm can heal scar free, [8] but larger wounds that are larger than 2mm healed with a scar. [ 8 ] In 2013, it was proven in pig tissue that full thickness micro columns of tissue, less than 0.5mm in diameter could be removed and that the replacement tissue, was ...
On average, over five times as many epithelial microcysts than normal have been observed in long-term contact lens wearers. [2] The hypoxic environment the cornea experiences when hydrogel contact lenses are worn is conducive to forming microcysts and vacuoles, most likely due to suppression of corneal endothelium metabolism.
The maturity of scars takes over a year; therefore, silicone treatment is also effective in scars aged over 12 months. [15] The therapy usually requires 6 to 12 months of constant wear to achieve optimum results. Recent data suggest that the combination of silicone gel sheeting and pressure therapy can improve post-traumatic scar healing. [4]
Tattoo ink (or similar agent) is rubbed into a fresh cut to add color or extra visibility to the scar. Most of the ink remains in the skin as the cut heals. This was how tattoos were initially done before the use of needles to inject ink. [17] Skin removal/skinning Skin removal allows for larger markings than simple cutting.

In scars, rete pegs are lost; [23] through a lack of rete pegs, scars tend to shear easier than normal tissue. [23] The endometrium, the inner lining of the uterus, is the only adult tissue to undergo rapid cyclic shedding and regeneration without scarring, shedding and restoring roughly inside a 7-day window on a monthly basis. [24] All other ...
