ABSTRACT:
The method for preventing and for treating mammalian cicatrices such as keloids, acne scars, hypertrophic scars, wrinkles, cellulite and neoplastic fibrosis which comprises intra-dermal injection of effective amounts of a pharmacologically suitable solution of the enzymes collagenase, elastase, papain, plasminogen activator, plasmin, mast cell protease or lysosomal hydrolase, individually, and one or more of such enzymes in combination with the enzyme hyaluronidase.
