All About Keloids and Their Formation:
A keloid is a pinkish or reddish scar that grows above the surface of the skin, resulting in rashes and itching. Scars are easily noticeable on our bodies, but when the tissue of the scar expands abnormally, it is called a keloid. The following are the features of keloids.
- Size: Extend beyond the original wound boundaries.
- Elevation: Raised above the surrounding skin.
- Texture: Firm, rubbery, or hard.
- Color: Can be pink, red, brown, or purplish.
- Surface: Often shiny and hairless.
- Symptoms: May be itchy, painful, or tender.
- Common locations: Earlobes, shoulders, chest, upper back, and neck.
Keloid Treatment in Dubai:
A range of keloid treatments is available at Dynamic Life Clinics that reduce the symptoms of existing keloids and prevent their recurrence. These treatments aim to lessen the height of scar tissue, but a long-term plan is required.

Other popular treatment options are surgery, laser therapy, and cryotherapy.
What influences the formation of keloids?
Keloids are commonly popular in individuals with darker skin tones of Asian and African descent. Another major reason is family history, like if your mother or father is facing keloids, then most probably they will also occur in your body. Other factors include tension in the skin, excessive collagen production, humidity, and hormones.

Keloid Injection: Our Top Treatment
Injections are our most successful keloid removal option because of their basic steps, written below:
Assessment:
Our expert will examine the location and size of the keloid to choose the concentration of injection. The area will be carefully cleaned, and topical anesthesia cream will be applied for comfort.
Injection:
A small needle is inserted directly into the body of the keloid, and then the medication is injected slowly into multiple points. The expert will inject until the tissue turns pale and the medication is properly distributed in the tissue.
Post Injection:
A small bandage is applied to the treatment spot, and the doctor will prescribe some medications to easily remove the keloids. Next sessions are scheduled accordingly.
Other effective treatment Options at Dynamic Life Clinics:
If injections don’t work, then other options are:
Laser Therapy:
Pulsed dyed or fractional CO2 lasers are used to destroy abnormal blood vessels on the keloid that flatten the scar and stimulate healthy skin regeneration.
Surgical Removal:
The full keloid is excised by making incisions around the tissues. After all, the remaining skin is closed with stitches. It provides immediate results, but downtime is required.
Cryotherapy:
Cryotherapy freezes the tissues and causes them to die. It reduces blood flow to the scar and leads to shrinkage and breakdown. This therapy is usually effective for smaller keloids.
Treatment Zones & Session Planning:
| Area | Typical Procedure | Key Consideration |
| Ears | Injection, Cryotherapy. | Low Systemic Risk. |
| Chest/Sternum | Injection, or Excision | High Recurrence Risk. |
| Shoulders/Back | Injection, Laser, or Excision. | High Tension. |
| Limbs | Injection or Excision. | Mobility. |
