PY - 2021 T2 - Treatment of Scars From Burns and Trauma AB - Scar treatments have been around for as long as there have been scars. The Egyptians, Romans, and Chinese developed remedies to promote the healing of wounds without scars. Common agents that have been used on traumatic wounds for years include honey, aloe, cocoa, and oak bark. Wilhelm Fabry wrote the first modern treatise on burns in the seventeenth century and addressed their healing, as well as the management of the resulting hypertrophic and contracted scars. Within the last century, the science of scar prevention and treatment has advanced, aided by discoveries and technologies that emerged to treat wounded warriors.
