Heat-induced changes in a keloid scar and a raw pigskin, as determined by thermography. The keloid was irradiated with the laser and its temperature was measured when pain was induced. The average temperature that induced pain was 44.5°C (left). In raw pigskins, a rise of temperature was observed at a depth of about 1 mm under the epidermis (right).
