What Is Keloid Removal?
Keloids are raised, often discolored scars that continue to grow beyond the original wound site. At Westover Hills Dermatology in San Antonio, TX, we help patients reduce or remove keloid scars to restore smoother, more comfortable skin. Keloids can form after surgery, acne, burns, or even minor injuries and are most commonly found on the chest, shoulders, ears, and back. While keloids are benign, they can be uncomfortable and difficult to manage without professional treatment. Our team offers proven, personalized solutions to help reduce their appearance and support skin health over time.
What Is Our Keloid Removal Technique?
Our keloid treatment approach depends on the size, location, and severity of the scar, as well as your skin type and medical history. Options may include corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation and flatten the scar, laser therapy to refine skin texture and tone, or keloid surgery removal for more persistent cases. Surgical procedures are often combined with post-operative treatments to help reduce the risk of recurrence. Each keloid treatment plan is tailored to your needs and closely monitored to promote healing and long-term results.
What Are the Benefits of Keloid Removal?
Patients who choose keloid treatment can expect several important benefits, including:
- Smoother, flatter skin with less visible scarring
- Relief from itching, pain, or tenderness
- Reduced risk of further keloid growth
- Improved skin texture and tone
- Personalized care plans with both noninvasive and surgical options
- Supportive aftercare and close follow-up
