Keloids are raised, thickened areas of scar tissue that can develop at the site of a wound, injury, or surgical incision. Livingstone Dermatology specializes in the treatment of keloids, offering personalized solutions to help restore the appearance and comfort of your skin.
Keloids are a type of abnormal wound healing response in which the body produces an excess of collagen at the site of a wound or injury. This leads to the formation of raised, often itchy, and sometimes painful scars that extend beyond the boundaries of the original injury.
While the exact cause of keloids is not fully understood, they are believed to result from an overproduction of collagen in response to skin trauma. Some individuals may have a genetic predisposition to keloid formation.
In addition to medical treatments, adopting a consistent skincare routine and avoiding known triggers can significantly improve the management of eczema.
