What makes a scar last?

Why is it that I have scars that have lasted since childhood that were caused by totally insignificant injuries, yet when I get really bad injuries now, the scars fade super fast? I thought it was safe to assume that worse injury = worse scar

A scar is just your body replacing the cells that were destroyed in the injury. Unfortunately, they don’t create an exact replica of the skin that was there before, they just create a new layer of let’s say, generic skin to cover the exposed area.
