Keloids
Keloids, also often referred to as keloid scars, can be defined as a firm overgrowth of skin seen as a result of a previous injury, such as a burn, insect bite, or surgical scar. This is the result of an overproduction of skin tissue by the cells surrounding the scar, and may become red, inflamed, and even painful in some cases. Keloid scars are a condition that’s most commonly seen within the afro-Caribbean community in individuals aged between 20-40, but can affect anyone at any point within their lives.
While not harmful to your general health, keloid scars can be a topic of great insecurity for some, leading individuals experiencing keloids to consider treatment options that will help to resolve any issues that they may be facing. Our qualified dermatologists at Birmingham Dermatology Clinic are on hand to help, providing you with an excellent quality of care and helping to alleviate the symptoms that are seen to accompany Keloids.
