Animal models of keloids and hypertrophic scars.

Abstract
This communication is a commentary on the manuscript entitled “Is There an Ideal Animal Model to Study Hypertrophic Scarring?” by Ramos et al (J Burn Care Res 2008;29:363–8). We believe that this review will have an important impact on future keloid and hypertrophic scar study, but we would like to further elaborate on some issues regarding this topic.
