Keloids

When skin is injured, fibrous tissue called scar tissue forms over the wound to repair and protect the injury. In some cases, extra scar tissue grows, forming smooth, hard growths called keloids which may be itchy at times.

Treatment at Skin Saga

Keloids need a multi-modality approach to reduce their size, thickness, redness and itchiness. We at Skin Saga use a combination approach with injections of anti-inflammatory medications and laser to effectively reduce keloids.
