“We always give our best to satisfy your needs”
Welcome to Derm Aura Skin & Hair Clinic, your trusted destination for effective Keloid treatment solutions. Keloids are raised, overgrown scars that extend beyond the original wound site, often causing discomfort and self-consciousness. At Derm Aura, our team of dermatologists understands the challenges posed by Keloids and aims to provide personalized care to help manage and alleviate this condition.
Understanding Keloids
Keloids are a type of abnormal scar tissue formed due to an overgrowth of collagen during the healing process after an injury or trauma to the skin. They appear as raised, firm, pink, or red lumps and can be itchy or tender. Keloids can develop after surgical incisions, acne scars, piercings, burns, or any other injury to the skin.
Best Treatment Options
At Derm Aura Skin & Hair Clinic, our dermatologists offer personalized treatment plans specifically tailored for Keloids. Treatment options may include:
- Steroid Injections: Intralesional corticosteroid injections directly into the Keloid to reduce inflammation and flatten the scar.
- Surgical Excision: Surgical removal of the Keloid, followed by steroid injections or other treatments to prevent recurrence.
- Cryotherapy: Freezing the Keloid with liquid nitrogen to reduce its size and flatten it.
- Pressure Therapy or Silicone Sheets: Application of pressure or silicone gel sheets over the Keloid to flatten and soften the scar tissue.
- Laser Therapy: Use of lasers to reduce the redness and thickness of Keloids.
