About Keloids And Hypertrophic Scars

After the skin has been injured, fibrous tissue develops over the injury to repair and protect it. This tissue is scar tissue. 
Keloids are formed when scar tissue grows excessively. They are thick, wide, and often raised. They are usually much larger than the wound. Keloids can affect any part of the body, but they are generally found on the earlobes, cheeks, shoulders, and chest. 
Similar to keloids, hypertrophic scars are raised, thick, and wide scars that are formed over an injury. However, unlike keloids, hypertrophic scars are milder and do not grow beyond the original wound.

Laser Treatment For Keloids And Hypertrophic Scars

Keloids and hypertrophic scars can be very difficult to correct. People try many remedies to reduce their scars like silicone sheets, ointments, massage therapy. But these methods do not always work.

At Arra Aesthetics, Pune, we use the RecoSMA laser developed by LINLINE to treat keloids and hypertrophic scars. The RecoSMA laser completely replaces scar tissue with healthy tissue without damaging or heating the skin.
