Keloid
Then the skin is injured, fibrous tissue called scar tissue forms over the wound to repair and protect the injury. In some cases, extra scar tissue grows, forming smooth, hard growths called keloids. Keloids can be much larger than the original wound. They’re most commonly found on the chest, shoulders, earlobes, and cheeks. However, keloids can affect any part of the body. Although keloids aren’t harmful to your health, they may create cosmetic concerns.

Keloids are raised overgrowths of scar tissue that develop at the site of a skin injury. They can extend beyond the original injury site.
Keloids can be caused by various skin injuries, including cuts, burns, surgical incisions, acne, and even minor scratches or insect bites.
Keloids appear as raised, thickened areas of skin that are usually red or purple initially and may become flesh-coloured over time.
Preventative measures include avoiding unnecessary skin trauma, using pressure dressings, silicone gel sheets, and applying corticosteroid creams to the area.
Keloid removal procedures may cause some discomfort, but local anaesthesia is typically used to minimise pain during treatment.
Keloids can affect anyone but are more common in people with darker skin tones, such as African, Hispanic, and Asian individuals.
No, keloids are benign and non-cancerous. They are simply an overgrowth of scar tissue.
Keloids can persist indefinitely if left untreated, but various treatments can help reduce their size and appearance.
While treatments can significantly reduce keloids, complete and permanent removal can be challenging, and recurrence is possible.
Yes, there is a genetic predisposition to developing keloids, meaning they can run in families.
