A patient, being seen for an elevated, darkened area of excess scar tissue, asks the nurse why this occurred. With which of the following should the nurse respond to the patient?
1. “This scar was caused by the wearing away of the superficial epidermis, causing a moist, shallow depression.”
2. “This scar was caused by excessive collagen formation during healing.”
3. “This scar was caused by skin loss extending into the dermis or subcutaneous tissue.”
4. “This scar was caused by wasting of the skin due to loss of collagen.”
