Finite Element Analysis of the Stress Changes Associated With the Growth of Acne Keloids

Background:. Almost half of all spontaneously occurring keloids are acne keloids on the anterior chest. These keloids often grow in a crab-claw shape due to predominant tractional stresses on the scar; such stresses are risk factors for keloid growth/progression.
