Keloid scar
A keloid scar is a thick raised scar. It can occur wherever you have a skin injury but usually forms on earlobes, shoulders, cheeks or the chest. It is caused by a dysfunction of the wound-healing process. Collagen — a protein found throughout the body is useful to wound healing, but when the body produces too much, keloids can form.
There is different types of treatment for Keloid scars. Please visit your nearby dermatologist for help OR you can consult Dr. Chow too! 💪
