What is a keloid?

Even before we get to keloid scar treatment, one must know what a keloid is. When the skin is injured, scar tissue forms over the wound for protection and repair. In some cases, extra tissue grows. It creates smooth and hard growths called keloids.

What treatment options can be considered for keloid scars?

If you frequently experience acne breakouts that bother your self-esteem or cause discomfort, you may be an ideal candidate for acne treatment. Consulting a dermatologist can help assess your skin type and the severity of acne and recommend suitable treatment options.

What is a hypertrophic scar?

Scars are common during the healing process. But a hypertrophic scar is an often raised, thickened and wide scar that develops as an abnormal response to an injury or trauma. In some people, while healing, too much collagen is produced by body cells called myofibroblasts.

How to differentiate between keloids and hypertrophic scars?

One should not mistake keloids for hypertrophic scars or vice versa. Hypertrophic scars are usually flat and range from pink to brown in colour. Hypertrophic scars are smaller and go away with time. There is an equal occurrence of hypertrophic scars among ethnicities and genders. Commonly caused by physical or chemical injuries like piercings or harsh fragrances, they are freshly painful and itchy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Even before we get to keloid scar treatment, one must know what a keloid is. When the skin is injured, scar tissue forms over the wound for protection and repair. In some cases, extra tissue grows. It creates smooth and hard growths called keloids.

These keloids can be larger than the original wound. Although they can be found on shoulders, cheeks, earlobes and chest, any part of the body can be avoided by them.

Even if they are not harmful in terms of health, there might be a rise in cosmetic concerns.

Now that you know what keloids are, let's move to the point of treating keloid scars in Ahmedabad. At The Aesthetica, you can find your ideal keloid scar treatment in Ahmedabad.

There are a variety of treatments to consider for treatment or anywhere else.

There is a treatment or a combination of multiple ones that can suit a case. For example, keloids can grow back, sometimes larger. Even new ones can develop.

Wound care: Stretchy fabric compression dressings can help with newer keloids. They can also be used to remove keloids post-surgery. This method can reduce or prevent a scar on a healing wound by wearing these dressings for 12-24 hours a day for 4-6 months. Although it is an uncomfortable method, it can be used.

Corticosteroid cream: The cure to itchiness can be found in a prescription-strength corticosteroid cream.

Injected medicine: In a small keloid case, the doctor might try to inject it with cortisone or other steroids. It might take up to half a year of the injection procedure before the scar visibly flattens. Some side effects of it can be thinning of the skin, spider veins or permanent skin colour change(hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation).

Freezing the scar: Small keloids can be frozen with liquid nitrogen(cryotherapy). There might be a repeated need for treatments with their own share of side effects like pain, skin colour loss(hypopigmentation) or blistering.

Radiation therapy: With a possible need of repeat treatments, low-level X-ray radiation alone or in post-surgery circumstances can help shrink or minimise the scar tissue. You might have to face skin complications or, in the long term, cancer.

Laser treatment: Pulsed-dye laser sessions can flatten large keloids. It is used to ease itchiness and fade keloids. The doctor might combine it with cortisone injections with session intervals of 4-8 weeks. Especially in darker-skinned people, rusting, hyperpigmentation/hypopigmentation, or blistering can be its side effects.

Surgical removal: If no other method has worked, your doctor might consider surgery combined with other methods. A fact worth knowing is that surgery has a 45-100% recurrence rate.

Now that we are done with keloids and their treatments, let us move to treat a hypertrophic scar in Ahmedabad. Again, the Aesthetica has the latest facilities, advanced techniques, and experienced surgeons to ensure safe and successful hypertrophic scar treatments in Ahmedabad.

Scars are common during the healing process. But a hypertrophic scar is an often raised, thickened and wide scar that develops as an abnormal response to an injury or trauma. In some people, while healing, too much collagen is produced by body cells called myofibroblasts. When a wound is inflamed or infected, under severe tension points or motion (like injuries over joints), or is left to heal without stitches, collagen is overproduced. Even though burn injuries are often connected to scars, acne, cuts, and piercings can also lead to them. As hypertrophic scars are similar to keloids, some might be trying to find a way to differentiate them. Compared to keloids, hypertrophic scars do not grow beyond the original injury's boundaries and tend to be milder. Although they are not dangerous or life-threatening, they can be painful or itchy. As it is a cosmetic issue, treatments are usually sought to minimise the scar's appearance. Although there aren't dedicated regimens to treat hypertrophic scars, there are some solutions available. If you want to treat hypertrophic scars in Ahmedabad, come to The Aesthetica. Our team of experts is led by Dr Sunil Arora, one of the best surgeons for hypertrophic scar treatments in Ahmedabad.
