“…It is possible that collagen, denatured by thermal injury, is antigenic and elicits anticollagen antibody production in the postburn patient. In fact, anticollagen antibodies have been found in burn patient serum [41]. Furthermore, there is increased IgG deposited in burn skin [42] and in the serum from recovered burn patients [43].…”

Lesions of "surface overhealing" include keloid, hypertrophic scar, and burn scar. All are characterized by overabundant collagen deposition. The biology of these lesions is reviewed, suggesting that abnormal collagen metabolism results from alterations in the inflammatory/immune response. Practical and theoretical treatment plans are outlined based on methods that alter collagen metabolism, the inflammatory/immune system or rely on physical alterations (surgery, pressure).
