Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars – BM Cosmetic
Keloids and hypertrophic scars are usually thick, rubbery, and reddish. They are non-cancerous and benign, generally accompanied by severe pain, itchiness, and changes in skin texture.
These abnormal scar tissues form as a result of excessive collagen production during wound healing. They can develop spontaneously or result from trauma, scratching, acne, or surgery. Common areas include the ear lobes, shoulders, neck, back, and central chest.
At BM Cosmetic, we offer the best treatment in Chennai for raised scars that make you feel self-conscious.
How BM Cosmetic treats these scars?
Scars can cause functional and cosmetic problems such as stiffness, pain, itching, and disfigurement. We offer several options based on location and severity:
Silicone Gel Application / Silicon Sheets
This non-surgical and painless method involves applying a thin layer over the scar. Silicone helps to hydrate and soften the tissue, decrease inflammation, and prevent further collagen formation. Must be used for at least 12 hours per day for various months.
Cryosurgery
Uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and remove scar tissue. Decreases the height and size of keloids while enhancing skin texture. Performed in several sessions, every session lasting a few minutes.
Intralesional Corticosteroids
Injection of medication into the scar tissue to decrease itching, inflammation, and collagen synthesis. Softens and flattens the scar; generally given one time per month for various months.
Ablative Laser Therapy
Uses a high-energy laser beam to vaporize scar tissue. Enhances elasticity, texture, and color. Performed in several sessions, with every session lasting 15 to 30 minutes.
Surgical Scar Revision
Involves cutting out scar tissue and closing with skin grafts or stitches. Removes large or unsightly scars and enhances alignment. Done under general or local anesthesia depending on location.
