CO2 Laser For Keloid
CO2 laser skin resurfacing is a procedure that uses carbon dioxide (CO2) and an ablative laser to remove scars, warts, and deep creases from the skin.
A keloid scar is a raised scar that is thick and elevated. It can appear everywhere there is a skin injury, although it is most common on the earlobes, shoulders, cheeks, and chest. Keloids can appear in more than one location if you're prone to them.
A keloid scar isn't dangerous to your health, but it can be distressing emotionally. The importance of prevention or early treatment cannot be overstated.
It is possible to treat keloid scars. If you don't like the way a keloid looks or feels, consult a doctor about flattening or removing it. A keloid can remain for years or reoccur despite therapy.
Within months to years of the triggering incident, a keloid scar can emerge. The following are possible signs and symptoms:
Scarring that is thick and uneven, usually on the earlobes, shoulders, cheekbones, or middle chest.
Skin that is lustrous, hairless, bumpy, and elevated.
Various sizes, depending on the original injury's size and when the keloid stops growing.
Texture ranges from soft to stiff and rubbery.
Depending on your skin tone, it can be reddish, brown, or purplish.
Itchiness
Discomfort
A keloid's growth can be slowed with early therapy. Consult a physician as soon as you notice a keloid. If you want to get rid of one that's been bothering you for a time, consult a dermatologist (dermatologist).
