Keloid Removal

At Antian Skin Clinic, keloid removal is treated as a medical scar management process rather than a simple cosmetic procedure. Doctor-led treatment plans focus on reducing scar volume, relieving symptoms such as pain or itching, and minimizing recurrence through controlled, evidence-based approaches suitable for both Korean and international patients.

What Keloid Conditions We Treat

• Raised keloid scars after surgery or injury
• Keloids from piercings or acne
• Painful or itchy keloid scars
• Enlarging or recurrent keloids
• Thick hypertrophic scars with keloid tendencies
• Long-standing scars resistant to topical treatment

How Keloid Removal Works

Treatment begins with a thorough scar evaluation, assessing size, thickness, location, and growth behavior. Based on the findings, targeted therapies are applied to suppress abnormal collagen activity, soften scar tissue, and reduce inflammation while lowering the risk of recurrence.

Core Treatment Features

• Steroid injection therapy
  Reduces inflammation, thickness, and excessive collagen production.
• Laser-assisted scar flattening
  Improves texture, redness, and scar rigidity.
• Scar-modulating medical treatments
  Helps control regrowth and symptom recurrence.
• Step-by-step treatment planning
  Ensures gradual, controlled improvement for sensitive scar tissue.
  

Treatment combinations are customized after medical evaluation.
