Scarring should be characterized as keloid scarring, which is possible to improve its undesirable appearance with effective surgical and radiation treatments, but there is some risk of recurrence.
Keloid is a scar that forms when connective tissue reacts to trauma beyond the normal range during the repair process after a localized injury to human skin, and continues to grow and enlarge. After standardized treatment, keloid can reach a better prognosis, i.e., keloid will no longer grow after removal, the local incision is flat and soft, the skin color is normal, and there is no pain and itching symptoms.
At present, the main treatment methods for keloid are surgical excision, radiation therapy, freezing, compression therapy, laser, silicone film dressing, etc. However, there is a certain risk of recurrence. However, there is a certain risk of recurrence, especially pure surgical treatment, the recurrence rate can reach 60% to 80%, often through the combination of radiation therapy to reduce the recurrence rate.
If there is any discomfort, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital in time and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
