Keloids, the overgrowth of scar tissue beyond the boundaries of an initial injury, can have a significant impact on a person’s physical appearance and emotional well-being. While keloid treatment options are available, early intervention plays a crucial role in achieving successful outcomes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Keloids occur due to an abnormal response to wound healing, resulting in the overproduction of collagen. They can develop after any form of skin injury, including surgical incisions, burns, acne, piercings or even minor scratches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
