Treatment for Keloids in Brooklyn, NY & Upper East Side, NY
Keloids are thick, raised scars that develop where the skin has healed after an injury. They form due to an excess production of collagen and can appear following surgeries, piercings, tattoos, or acne. Keloids are more common in individuals under 30 but can occur at any age and are often seen in people with darker skin tones, although anyone can develop them. If you're dealing with keloids, you might be seeking effective treatment to reduce or eliminate these noticeable and sometimes bothersome scars.
At Kleydman Dermatology in Brooklyn, NY & Upper East Side, NY, we understand that keloids can affect your confidence and comfort, which is why we offer specialized treatments to address them.
Treatment Options at Kleydman Dermatology
- Cryotherapy: This treatment freezes the keloid with liquid nitrogen, helping to reduce its size.
- Laser Therapy: Laser treatments can effectively minimize the appearance of keloids by flattening them and reducing redness.
- Surgical Removal: In cases where other treatments are ineffective, surgical removal may be considered. This method can be very effective but carries a risk of the keloid re-forming.
Each treatment option has its advantages, and the best choice depends on the keloid's characteristics and your personal health profile. Our team is here to guide you through the process and help you choose the most appropriate treatment.
