Presents as erythema, followed by increased skin pigmentation (may result in long term pigmentation of a fresh or recent scar)

Affecting the metabolism of Type I collagen within hours of UV exposure

Whether the result of sutured incision or natural healing, a scar should be protected from the sun during the whole maturation process (anywhere from 6 months to 3 years, according to studies cases).
