Available Diagnostic Procedures
Before any treatment, a thorough pre-operative consultation is conducted. This is part of the surgical package or a separate visit. For surgical plans, a pathology investigation is available. This procedure analyzes the scar tissue.
Treatment Options for Keloid Scars
B.Care offers both non-surgical and surgical approaches. The right option depends on the scar's characteristics.
- Steroid Injections: This non-surgical method involves injecting corticosteroids directly into the keloid. It helps reduce the scar's size and inflammation. Treatment typically requires 2-3 visits every 2-3 weeks. This is an outpatient procedure with no hospital stay.
- Surgical Excision with Skin Graft: This surgery completely removes the keloid. A skin graft from another body area is then placed to cover the wound. It uses local anesthesia with light sedation. The technique aims to prevent recurrence by avoiding skin tension. A follow-up for suture removal occurs around day 14.
Surgical Package Details
