Keloid scars Treatment in Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery
About the clinic
Keloid scar treatment at the clinic of Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır in Ankara, Turkey, focuses on a multimodal protocol to manage tissue overgrowth. Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır leads the practice with specialized expertise in complex reconstructive surgery, including performing the second face transplant in Turkey. The clinic uses a combination of advanced laser technologies and low-dose radiotherapy to treat even the most resistant keloid cases.
Keloid treatment methods
The clinic provides several non-surgical and surgical options to address the unique texture and volume of keloid scars. Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır selects the method based on the scar's size, location, and history of recurrence.
- Intralesional corticosteroid injection. This medical treatment involves direct injections into the scar tissue to help suppress elevation and stop itching.
- Pulsed dye laser therapy. This laser targets the vascularity within the scar to reduce redness and fade the color.
- Fractional laser therapy. The specialist uses this technology to resurface the tissue and improve the overall texture of the skin.
- Cryotherapy. This procedure freezes the scar tissue to reduce its volume and is performed as an outpatient service.
- Conservative therapies. Patients may use custom-fitted pressure garments or topical silicone gels and sheets to prevent the formation of raised scars.
Surgical options and radiotherapy
For large or persistent keloids, surgical intervention may be necessary. Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır uses precise techniques to remove the excess tissue while managing the risk of the scar returning. Because keloids have a high rate of recurrence, the clinic often combines surgery with adjuvant therapies.
- Surgical revision. The procedure includes scar excision followed by meticulous closure using resuturing techniques.
- Low-dose radiotherapy. This is used immediately after surgical excision for resistant keloids to help prevent the scar from growing back.
Specialist expertise
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır is a member of the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery. He conducted significant research at the Cleveland Clinic on composite tissue transplantation. His background in hand surgery and plastic reconstruction allows him to handle delicate scar revisions on various parts of the body. The clinic supports international patients with assistance in English and German to help them understand their personalized treatment plan. You may request a consultation on Bookimed to discuss your options for scar revision.

Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Hand Surgery: more details about the clinic
Surgical Expertise and Statistics
Prof. Dr. Serdar Nasır attained Professor status in 2019. He received Associate Professor status in 2011. His career includes research on composite tissue transplantation at the Cleveland Clinic. This experience shapes his work in face and limb reconstruction.
The practice reports high success rates for microvascular free tissue transfers. These complex procedures maintain a success rate of 95% or higher. Dr. Nasır also performed notable face transplant work in Turkey. This background supports both aesthetic and functional patient goals.
Plastic and Reconstructive Specialties
The clinic provides a variety of aesthetic and restorative surgeries:
- Rhinoplasty – addresses both aesthetic shape and functional breathing.
- Facial Rejuvenation – includes facelifts, blepharoplasty, and chin aesthetics.
- Body Contouring – offers lipoabdominoplasty, combining tummy tucks with liposuction.
- Gynecomastia Surgery – uses VASER or laser-assisted liposuction for male breast enlargement.
Specialists use the Simon Classification to stage gynecomastia. This helps determine whether surgical excision or liposuction is needed. Tummy tuck options are personalized based on patient needs. These range from mini-abdominoplasty to extended techniques.
Reconstructive and Hand Surgery
Reconstructive care focuses on tissue loss from trauma, burns, and tumors. The clinic uses a "reconstructive elevator" approach. This method matches surgical options to specific patient needs. Surgeons perform microvascular free tissue transfers for complex defects.
Hand surgery addresses conditions involving nerves, tendons, and bones. Surgeons treat acute fractures and nerve lacerations. They also perform toe-to-hand finger transfers to restore movement and sensation.
Gender-affirming pathways are available for transfeminine and transmasculine patients:
- Phalloplasty – uses the gold-standard Radial Forearm Free Flap (RFFF) technique.
- Metoidioplasty – creates functional structures using natural anatomical tissues.
- Facial Feminization (FFS) – involves planning across multiple facial regions.
- Chest Masculinization – includes mastectomy and chest contouring.
Specialists emphasize medical safety during these transitions. Patients must pause hormone therapy before surgery to reduce blood clot risks. Nurses monitor tissue color and temperature every hour after flap transfers.
Technology and Diagnostic Capabilities
The clinic uses several diagnostic tools to plan surgeries. Electromyography (EMG) measures nerve conduction velocity for hand injuries. MRI and CT scans help map tissue structures. For gynecomastia, breast ultrasound or mammograms confirm tissue health.
Treatment technologies include modern energy-based systems. Surgeons use VASER, laser-assisted, and power-assisted liposuction. They also apply radiofrequency tools and ultrasonic-wave devices. These technologies liquefy fat cells while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.
Complex wounds are managed with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (VAC). This system reduces edema and increases blood flow to support healing. All microsurgery is performed under operating microscopes.
International Patient Services
The clinic treats international patients with a health-tourism-oriented approach. Staff provide medical guidance in English and German. This means clear communication throughout long rehabilitation periods. Postoperative care includes detailed dressing and medication instructions.
Rehabilitation accounts for 50% of total treatment success. The clinic coordinates with therapists for customized splints and physiotherapy. Early mobilization is encouraged to prevent joint stiffness. Surgeons also provide sensory re-education programs for nerve repair patients.
