 | | They tend to be most common on the shoulders and chest. |  | | Transforming Growth Factors (TGF) play a critical role in scar development and current research is investigating the manipulation of these TGFs for drug development to prevent scarring from the emergency (and rather inappropriate) adult wound healing process. |  | | These are caused when underlying structures supporting the skin, such as fat or muscle, are lost. |

 | | Scar later learned what Dr. Marcoh realized earlier - that his arm is actually an incomplete Philosopher's Stone itself, created from the transmutation of countless Ishbalans who died in the war; it causes Scar intense pain when it absorbs another incomplete Philosopher's Stone. |  | | When Winry hears this, she has a mental breakdown and tries to shoot Scar with a handgun which was on the ground. |  | | His right arm is tattooed with a transmutation circle that allows him to destroy objects at will, by performing only the first two steps of a transmutation (Understanding and Decomposing). |

| | Scar Revision |
 | | If the scar lies across the natural skin creases (or "lines of relaxation") the surgeon may be able to reposition it to run parallel to these lines, where it will be less conspicuous. |  | | Z-plasty is a surgical technique used to reposition a scar so that it more closely conforms to the natural lines and creases of the skin, where it will be less noticeable. |  | | As you heal, keep in mind that no scar can be removed completely; the degree of improvement depends on the size and direction of your scar, the nature and quality of your skin, and how well you care for the wound after the operation. |

| | MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Scar revision |
 | | Scar tissue forms as skin heals after an injury (such as an accident) or surgery. |  | | The degree of improvement will depend on variables such as the direction and size of the scar, the age of the person, skin type and color, and hereditary factors that may precondition the extent of the healing process. |  | | These techniques are used when a considerable amount of skin has been lost in the original injury, when a thin scar will not heal, and when improved function (rather than aesthetic reasons) are the primary concern. Additional procedures may be necessary to achieve appropriate aesthetic results. |

 | | Superior scar revision begins with an understanding of the factors affecting scar formation and is linked to an applied knowledge of plastic surgical technique and specific revision procedures. |  | | Contraindications: Contraindications to scar revision can be divided into those that limit a favorable visible outcome and instances in which the patient is not psychologically prepared for or has unrealistic expectations of what the revision procedure is capable of providing. |  | | Patients who present with unaesthetic facial scars typically have wounds that (1) exhibit an unfavorable configuration with respect to length and direction of RSTLs, (2) have undergone pathologic healing processes, (3) unfavorably cross anatomic regions, (4) are subjected to constant deforming contractile forces because of underlying anatomy, and (5) are deeply traumatic. |

 | | Also, important is changing the direction of the scar so that it falls into a natural skin crease where it is much less noticeable. |  | | In addition to surgical technique, there are medications and injections that can be used to make scars heal better as well as making them softer and less itchy. |  | | An inconspicuous scar is less painful and less itchy. |

| | AAFPRS - Understanding Facial Scar Treatment |
 | | Hypertrophic scars, unlike keloids, do not grow out of the boundaries of the scar area, but because of their thick, raised texture, can be unsightly and may also restrict the natural movement of muscles and tendons. |  | | When the skin is in the process of recovering from an injury, whether the result of an accident, surgery, a burn, or acne, scarring will occur wherever multiple layers of the skin have been affected. |  | | Once a scar forms, it is permanent but may be made less visible or relocated surgically. |
