Scar tissue is the fibrous connective tissue which forms a scar; it can be found on any tissue on the body, including skin and internal organs, where an injury, cut, surgery or disease has taken place, and then healed. Thicker than the surrounding tissue, scar tissue is paler and denser because it has a limited blood supply; although it takes the place of damaged or destroyed tissue, it is limited in function, including movement, circulation, and sensation. Other than with minor cuts and scrapes, scarring is a common result of any bodily damage.
Scar tissue in the skin is inferior to healthy, normal skin for several reasons: sweat glands are damaged or destroyed, hair does not grow back, and there is less resistance to ultraviolet radiation

Can putting heat were scar tissue is will it help loosen it up?
Applying heat to scar tissue can help increase blood flow and promote healing, but it may not necessarily "loosen" the tissue. Scar tissue typically forms as part of the healing process, and its structure is different from normal tissue. Heat can help make scar tissue more pliable and reduce stiffness in the surrounding muscles and connective tissue.
