Segmental scarring can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
Injury: Physical trauma or surgical procedures can lead to localized tissue damage and subsequent scarring. Infection: Bacterial, viral, or fungal infections can cause inflammation and tissue damage, resulting in segmental scarring. Chronic diseases: Conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and autoimmune diseases can lead to progressive tissue damage and fibrosis. Toxins: Exposure to certain chemicals or drugs can cause localized tissue injury and scarring.
