Abstract
Scars are best camouflaged by placing incisions precisely within preexistent creases and cosmetic junctions rather than only following the regional favorable scar direction. Since natural rhytids, contours, and junctions are not straight or composed of geometric shapes, this requires an understanding of techniques of creating scars of irregular curvature. Such a method is presented and illustrated with clinical examples.Mesh:
