What Are Keloid Scars?
Keloid scars are raised, thickened areas of scar tissue that develop following an injury or surgery. They occur due to excessive collagen production during healing, leading to scar tissue extending beyond the original wound site. Keloid scars can be cosmetically troubling and may cause itching, discomfort, or pain. Though there is no definitive cure for keloid scars, our comprehensive keloid scar treatments can significantly reduce their appearance and ease associated symptoms.
Keloid Scar Treatment Options
Treating keloid scars effectively often requires a combination of methods. Our approach to keloid treatment takes into account factors such as the scar's size, location, severity, and your individual medical history. Options include:
Scar Remodelling Injections: These injections help reduce the thickness of keloid scars and improve their appearance.
Cryotherapy: Freezing the keloid to reduce its size and flatten the scar.
Laser Therapy: Advanced laser scar removal treatment for keloids targets scar tissue to improve texture and colour.
Scar Surgical Removal: In some cases, keloid removal surgery in Melbourne may be necessary to remove the scar tissue.
Pressure Therapy or Silicone Sheeting are techniques that apply pressure or silicone to the scar to help reduce its size and appearance.
Managing Underlying Conditions: Addressing contributing factors affecting scar formation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to see results from keloid scar treatment?
Improvements from keloid scar treatment in Melbourne typically begin within a few weeks, with full results becoming noticeable over a period of up to six months. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve optimal results.
How many treatment sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies based on the keloid’s size, location, and severity. Most patients need several sessions for effective results. During your consultation, we will provide a personalised treatment plan.
Is keloid scar treatment painful?
Our Melbourne procedures for keloid scar removal are designed to minimise discomfort. Numbing creams or injections are used to ease pain during treatment. Post-procedure discomfort is usually mild and manageable with cool compresses or over-the-counter pain relief.
Can keloid scars recur after treatment?
Keloid scars can recur even after treatment. While treatments significantly reduce the appearance of keloids, ongoing monitoring and potential repeated treatments may be necessary to manage the scars long-term.
