Scars and Keloids by LP-CLINIC

In every injury, the body's healing mechanism is activated to restore the tissue, structurally and functionally, to its original state. In some cases, This healing mechanism is disrupted, resulting in either hyperplasia of the skin at the site of injury or incomplete healing. In either case, an aesthetic problem is created.

Symptoms

Atrophic scars form a slight depression locally in the skin due to damage to collagen, fat or other tissues under the skin and are caused by acne, chickenpox, surgery and injuries.

Keloids and hypertrophic scars cause swelling in the skin and are created when the body produces an excess amount of collagen during the wound healing process. Hypertrophic scars are usually thick, appear a short time after the injury, and typically improve over time. Keloids are scars that have expanded beyond the boundaries of the original incision and are larger in size than hypertrophic ones. Their most frequent areas of appearance are the back, chest, and neck, as well as the chin and earlobes. They are raised, red, and very often cause itching and pain. Finally, keloids do not recede and do not become milder over time.

Treatment

At LP CLINIC, following a full clinical examination and a brief medical history, the dermatologist will discuss the appropriate treatment for you. The treatment of scars and keloids is a long-term and demanding process. Regular repetition of sessions is often required to achieve the desired result. The treatment is primarily carried out using injectable therapies (steroids) and cryotherapy. Furthermore, after treatment, the application of specialized regenerative creams is mandatory in all cases, as well as sunscreen to prevent the formation of discolorations.

After keloid removal, can this happen again?

After keloid removal, it can be re-created because your body has this tendency. Therefore, we pay attention to injuries, we do not tattoo and we avoid any skin excision if it is not necessary. For treatment, we recommend Triamcinolone and Cryotherapy with a special needle.

How are acne scars treated?

Acne scars are quite difficult to treat. Laser and chemical peels are recommended. However, the best treatment remains prevention, so acne must be treated early so that it does not create permanent damage and scars.
