Expert Insight by Dr. Manali

Keloids are more than just scars; they are an overgrowth of scar tissue that extends beyond the original wound. They can be itchy, painful, and distressing. In my practice in Greater Noida, I use a combination of therapies like intralesional steroid injections and precision excision to help flatten these scars and prevent their recurrence.

Understanding Keloids & Scars

Keloids often develop after minor skin injuries, such as ear piercings, acne, or surgical incisions, especially in individuals with a genetic predisposition. Unlike normal scars, keloids do not regress over time and may even grow larger.

Advanced Treatment Options

At our clinic in Greater Noida, we offer several evidence-based solutions:

Treatment Methodology Key Benefit
Steroid Injections Intralesional delivery Flattens and softens the scar tissue.
Silicon Therapy Medical-grade sheets/gels Softens and hydrates the scar area.
Surgical Excision Precision Removal For large keloids, usually paired with injections.
Clinical Advice

Dr. Manali's Advice

Never try to "squeeze" or cut a keloid at home. This can trigger an even larger growth. Early treatment when a scar starts to feel thick and itchy is much more effective than treating a large, old keloid.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common patient queries answered by our specialist.

Can a keloid come back after treatment?

Yes, keloids have a high recurrence rate. This is why we often combine surgery with injections or pressure therapy to minimize the risk.

Is the treatment painful?

Intralesional injections involve a small needle, which can cause brief discomfort. We can use numbing cream to make the experience much more comfortable.
