Keloid scars are raised, bulbous and tend to spread when compared with normal scar. The appearance can vary from mild cosmetic nuisance to gross deformity. Keloids can also be itchy and painful. Keloid scars differ from hypertrophic scars in that they do grow and spread beyond the margins or the wound or injury. Keloid Scars (like hypertrophic scars) are more prevalent in the following: Darker skin types Areas where skin heals under tension Ears, chest, shoulders and upper arms Following surgery – breast implant scars or abdominal procedure scars Areas of constant flexion and extension such as skin over joints. Keloid scars are essentially overgrown scars. The body has failed to recognise when to stop the scarring process. Myofibroblast cells responsible for wound healing have produced too much collagen and an overgrown scar. The ongoing scarring process causes low grade inflammation and blood vessel formation. This inflammation and blood vessel formation cause the scar to appear red. It also results in irritation, itch and pain. Keloid scars are often caused by burn injuries. Acne often results in indented scars but can also cause raised Keloid scars particularly on the chest, shoulders and back of the neck. Conditions such as Pseudo folliculitis Barbae (in growing beard hairs) Body piercings (in particular ear piercings are the largest cause of keloid scars) and small cuts can result in healing with keloid scarring. Surgical scars can also become Keloidal. Dr Hussein uses multiple techniques and laser therapy in the cosmetic and symptomatic management of Keloid scars. Music: www.bensound.com
