Keloid Scar Treatment
Overview
Keloid scars are raised as thickened scars that grow beyond the original wound due to excessive collagen production. They can appear after injuries, acne, burns or piercings. Unlike normal scars they keep growing and may cause discomfort or itching. Keloid scar treatment helps reduce their size, improve appearance and relieve symptoms.
