Fibrillin-1 and elastin are differentially expressed in hypertrophic scars and keloids

Hypertrophic scars and keloids are two forms of excessive cutaneous scarring. Considering the importance of extracellular matrix elements in tissue repair, a morphological and quantitative analysis of the elastic system components (fibrillin‐1 and elastin) was performed in normal skin, normal scars,...
