At Prima ENT Hospitals, we understand that keloids are not just a cosmetic concern but also a medical one. Our team of experienced dermatologists and surgeons specializes in the treatment and removal of keloids, ensuring both aesthetic and therapeutic outcomes.
Keloids are raised scars that grow excessively where the skin has healed after an injury. They can be much larger than the original wound and are typically raised, dark in color, and can become itchy or painful.
Our approach to treating keloids involves a comprehensive evaluation to determine the most effective treatment plan tailored to each patient. Our services include:
Q: Is keloid excision painful?
A: We perform the procedure under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Post-operative pain is typically mild and manageable with prescribed medications.
Q: What is the risk of keloids returning after removal?
A: While no treatment can guarantee keloids will not return, we use the latest techniques and follow-up care to significantly reduce the risk of recurrence.
Q: How long is the recovery time after keloid excision?
A: Recovery varies depending on the size and location of the excision. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days, but complete healing may take longer.
Q: Are there any side effects of keloid treatment?
A: Possible side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and sensitivity at the treatment site. Long-term side effects are rare when the procedure is performed by qualified professionals.
Q: How can I schedule a consultation at Prima ENT Hospitals?
A: You can schedule a consultation by contacting us through our website or by calling our office directly. We are here to help you achieve the best possible results.
