Keloids are raised, often itchy or painful scars that form due to an overgrowth of collagen at the site of a skin injury. Unlike regular scars, keloids can continue to grow and spread beyond the original injury, becoming a cosmetic concern as well as a source of discomfort. At Glojas Specialist, we offer advanced keloid treatment using cutting-edge laser technology to effectively reduce the size, appearance, and symptoms of keloids, helping you achieve smoother, healthier skin.
Keloids are the result of an abnormal healing process where the body produces excess collagen, leading to a thick, raised scar. They can occur after surgery, injuries, burns, piercings, or even minor skin traumas like acne. Keloids are more common in individuals with darker skin tones and can affect various parts of the body, including the chest, shoulders, earlobes, and neck.
While keloids are benign and non-cancerous, they can be unsightly and uncomfortable. Finding the right treatment is crucial to managing their growth and improving your skin’s appearance.
At Glojas Specialist, we utilize advanced laser therapy as a primary method for keloid treatment. Laser therapy is an effective, non-invasive option that targets the excess scar tissue, reducing the size and thickness of keloids while minimizing discomfort.
Laser therapy works by delivering focused light energy to the keloid tissue. The laser penetrates the skin, breaking down the excess collagen and reducing the scar’s size. This process also stimulates the production of new, healthy skin cells, promoting smoother skin texture. Over a series of treatments, the keloid gradually flattens and becomes less noticeable, with reduced redness and discomfort.
Laser therapy is a non-invasive procedure, meaning there are no incisions or stitches required. This makes it a safer option with minimal risk of complications and a quicker recovery time compared to surgical removal.
Laser therapy can significantly reduce the size, thickness, and discoloration of keloids. It also helps to alleviate symptoms such as itching, pain, and tenderness associated with keloids. With consistent treatment, patients can achieve noticeable improvements in the appearance of their scars.
Our laser technology is suitable for all skin types, including darker skin tones, which are more prone to keloid formation. The treatment is carefully calibrated to ensure effectiveness while minimizing the risk of side effects like hyperpigmentation or further scarring.
Each laser treatment session is relatively quick, typically lasting 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and location of the keloid. There is minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly after the procedure.
Consultation and Assessment
Your keloid treatment journey begins with a thorough consultation at Glojas Specialist. Our experienced specialists will evaluate your keloid, discuss your concerns, and determine the best treatment approach based on the size, location, and severity of the keloid.
Laser Treatment Sessions
During each session, the laser is applied to the keloid using precise, controlled pulses of light energy. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with most patients experiencing only mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Multiple sessions are usually required to achieve optimal results, with treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
Post-Treatment Care
After your laser session, you may experience slight redness or swelling in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few hours. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible outcome, including tips on how to protect the treated area and promote healing.
Keloid laser treatments, when not performed by experienced professionals, may lead to several adverse effects including prolonged redness from skin damage, worsening of keloids due to additional trauma, ineffectiveness in reducing keloid size, and increased risk of skin infections due to compromised skin integrity. It’s crucial to undergo keloid laser treatment only under the care of skilled practitioners in registered clinics to ensure optimal results and minimize complications.
In Malaysia, a keloid laser costs RM 500 and above per part depending on the area. If it is in the private areas or more sensitive areas e.g: the eyes, it will be quite risky thus a lot more precautions will be needed.
GLOJAS Clinic offers keloid lasers starting from RM 100 per part. This price varies with the size of the keloids and the areas they are in. You may check with our customer service executives for your case. We also encourage you to have a consultation session with our doctors so we can provide you with the price estimation to get rid of the keloids.
How many laser sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required varies depending on the size and severity of the keloid. Most patients see significant improvement after 3 to 6 sessions, but more sessions may be needed for larger or more persistent keloids.
Is laser therapy painful?
Laser therapy for keloids is generally well-tolerated. Some patients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snap on the skin. Topical numbing cream can be applied before the treatment to minimize discomfort.
Can keloids come back after treatment?
While laser therapy is effective in reducing the size and symptoms of keloids, there is a possibility of recurrence, especially if the keloid is large or located in a high-tension area. Regular follow-up treatments can help maintain results and prevent regrowth.
Is laser therapy safe for all skin types?
Yes, our laser technology is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker skin tones. Our specialists are experienced in treating keloids across a range of skin types and will customize the treatment to suit your needs.
Will the treatment leave scars?
Laser therapy is designed to reduce existing keloid scars without causing additional scarring. The treatment is non-invasive and carefully targeted to ensure minimal risk of further scar formation.
Can laser therapy be combined with other treatments?
Yes, laser therapy can be combined with other treatments such as steroid injections or silicone gel to enhance results. Your specialist will recommend the best combination of treatments based on your specific case.
