Treatment
Keloid Treatment
Care for thick, raised scars that can extend beyond the original wound area.
Overview
Keloids form when scar tissue grows beyond the boundaries of the original injury. They may be itchy, uncomfortable or cosmetically concerning.
Professional management may include injections, laser-based approaches, pressure therapy, cryotherapy or other options depending on the scar and clinical assessment.
What a consultation may cover
- Scar size, location and duration
- Symptoms such as itching or tenderness
- Past treatment response
- Discussion of recurrence risk and realistic goals
Treatment suitability, number of sessions, risks and recovery vary by person. A qualified clinician should assess your condition before any procedure.
