KELOID EXCISION, KELOID REMOVAL AND KELOID TREATMENTS

Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon, Mr Javaid, provides surgical procedures and treatments to remove or improve the appearance of Keloid Scars. All surgical Keloid Excision, Keloid Removal and Keloid Treatment possibilities will be discussed in the initial consultation along with risks involved for each type of scarring.

WHAT IS A KELOID?

Every time the skin is cut or damaged through its full thickness it will heal with a scar. Some people naturally make better scars than others. We cannot accurately predict this but in general, Keloid Scars are more common in people with dark skin, such as people from Africa and African-Caribbean, Asian and south Indian communities; as well as people with fair freckled skin and red hair will tend to produce poor scars, including Keloid Scars. Younger people between the ages of 10 and 30 are more likely to develop them.

A Keloid Scar is one that becomes thick, lumpy, raised and larger than the original wound. They are enlarged, raised scars that can be pink, red, skin-coloured or darker than the surrounding skin. Keloid Scars can develop after very minor skin damage, such as an acne spot or a piercing, and spread beyond the original area of skin damage. Certain areas of the body produce worse scars than others. The worst area being the middle of the chest which can, on rare occasions, produce Keloids spontaneously without any known injury. The tip of the shoulder is poor, but fortunately the face and neck make good scars, generally.

Keloid Scars are more common on the upper chest, shoulders, head and neck, but they can happen anywhere; especially on the earlobes after a piercing.

Keloid Scars continues to grow encroaching upon normal tissue and may need specific treatment.

KELOID EXCISION, KELOID REMOVAL AND KELOID TREATMENTS?

Surgery can be performed to remove, reduce or de-bulk the scar, Steroid injections or silicone sheets can be used to reduce or flatten the scar.

Mr Javaid also routinely performs excision of benign soft tissue lumps and bumps in addition to benign skin lesions.
