Abstract
During the past five years, 15 patients, aged between 17 years to 35 years of age (mean 26 years), presented for cosmetic improvement of scars which were induced by treatment with SolcoDerm, either in the childhood or in their early teens. It was an homogenic group of patients who were treated at least 10 years before the present examination. Two representative cases are presented, and the literature is reviewed.
