Comparison of collagen III fibers. Collagen III fibers of the normal (a) and STSG (b) group; 200x magnification, 100 μm scale bar; immunostaining technique; Collagen provides tensile strength but hypertrophic scars contain an overabundance of collagen, contributing to a raised appearance and stiffness. There was a significant decrease in collagen III in the STSG group compared to the normal group.
