Keloids are raised, often itchy or painful scars that form when the skin overreacts to an injury, such as a cut, burn, or piercing. Unlike regular scars, keloids can grow larger than the original wound and may continue to expand over time. If you’re struggling with keloids, Glojas Specialist offers a highly effective solution: Keloid Removal Injections. This minimally invasive treatment can help reduce the size of keloids, relieve discomfort, and improve the appearance of your skin.
Keloid Removal Injections involve the administration of corticosteroids directly into the keloid tissue. These injections work by reducing inflammation, flattening the raised scar, and preventing further growth. Over a series of treatments, the keloid becomes softer, less noticeable, and may even blend more naturally with the surrounding skin. This treatment is particularly effective for keloids that have not responded well to other therapies.
Keloid removal injections are a non-surgical option for treating keloids, making them an ideal choice for those looking to avoid the risks and downtime associated with surgery. The procedure is quick, with minimal discomfort and no need for incisions or stitches.
Keloid injections are highly effective in reducing the size and thickness of keloids. By targeting the underlying inflammation and collagen production, these injections can significantly flatten the scar and improve its texture over time.
In addition to reducing the size of the keloid, these injections can also improve the color and overall appearance of the scar, making it less noticeable. This can be particularly beneficial for keloids in visible areas, such as the face, neck, or chest.
Keloids are often associated with symptoms like itching, tenderness, and pain. Corticosteroid injections can help alleviate these symptoms by reducing inflammation and softening the scar tissue.
Consultation and Assessment
Your journey to smoother, scar-free skin begins with a thorough consultation at Glojas Specialist. During this session, our specialists will assess the size, location, and severity of your keloid(s) and discuss your treatment options. We will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Injection Treatment
During the treatment, corticosteroids are carefully injected directly into the keloid tissue using a fine needle. The number of injections and treatment sessions required will depend on the size and response of the keloid. Most patients begin to see improvement after a few sessions, with the keloid gradually becoming flatter and less noticeable.
Post-Treatment Care
After the injection, you may experience mild redness or swelling at the injection site, which typically subsides within a few hours. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results. It’s important to avoid picking or scratching the treated area and to protect it from sun exposure.
Keloid injections, typically using steroids like Triamcinolone, are specifically designed to treat keloids. Keloids are abnormal scars that result from an overproduction of collagen by the skin in response to injury. These scars are characterized by their raised, thickened appearance and can be itchy and painful, causing discomfort to patients. By injecting steroids directly into the keloid, the medication works to break down the bonds between collagen fibers, thereby reducing the amount of scar tissue beneath the skin. This treatment aims to flatten the keloid, alleviate symptoms such as itching and pain, and improve the overall appearance of the affected area.
The precautions for keloid injections include potential side effects such as thinning or sunken skin at the injection site, which typically resolve within a few hours. It’s important for patients to discuss any concerns or medical history with their healthcare provider before undergoing the procedure to ensure safety and effectiveness.
The side effects of keloid injections may include temporary redness, scabbing, or swelling of the skin at the injection site. These are minor and usually resolve within a few days following treatment.
There is typically no downtime associated with keloid injections. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Gentle massaging of the scar may aid in breaking down scar tissue and enhancing the effectiveness of the injection.
The cost of keloid injections varies depending on the size and location of the keloid, typically ranging from RM 150 to RM 500 per session. While the procedure may cause minimal pain, it is generally manageable for patients. Choosing experienced and trained doctors can further minimize discomfort and ensure effective treatment, enhancing overall patient satisfaction and safety.
At GLOJAS Clinic, the cost of keloid injection treatment starts from RM 100. Our doctors meticulously design and assess the number of sessions required for treatment. Despite the challenges of treating keloids, keloid injection therapy can effectively alleviate symptoms such as pain and itching.
How many sessions are needed to remove a keloid?
The number of sessions required varies depending on the size and severity of the keloid. Most patients see significant improvement after 3 to 4 sessions, spaced several weeks apart.
Are keloid injections painful?
Keloid injections involve minimal discomfort. A topical anesthetic can be applied before the procedure to numb the area and ensure your comfort during the treatment.
Can keloids return after treatment?
While keloid injections are effective in reducing the size of keloids, there is a possibility that the keloid could return, especially if the skin is injured again. Regular follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain results.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects from keloid injections are typically mild and may include redness, swelling, or temporary discoloration at the injection site. These effects usually resolve within a few hours to a few days.
Can keloid injections be combined with other treatments?
Yes, keloid injections can be combined with other treatments such as laser therapy or silicone gel sheets for enhanced results. Your specialist will recommend the best approach based on your specific condition.
Is there any downtime after the treatment?
There is no downtime required after keloid injections. You can return to your normal activities immediately, although it’s advised to follow post-treatment care instructions to ensure the best results.
