Methods: The study was conducted on 30 patients attending at Dermatology Outpatient Clinic of Minia University Hospital. in the period from January 2022 till November 2022. Patients were divided into 2 groups: 15 patients with acne scars and 15 individual as a control group, Serum PIIINP was assessed in each patient using Human procollagen type 3 ELISA Kit from BT LAB (Bioassay Technology Laboratory), China, and by using of Huma reader 3700, Germany.
