What is a Keloid Scar?

A keloid scar is a tough, raised scar caused by damage to the skin such as an injection. Keloid scars can often grow larger than the original wound, usually beginning as a red or purple colour before becoming brown, purple, or pale.

Keloids are irregularly shaped and tend to enlarge progressively, sometimes without warning. Unlike scars, keloids do not fade over time, meaning removal is the only option if you wish to eliminate it.

They may cause pain and discomfort, and even lead to restricted movement if the keloid scar is located on or near a joint. Often, keloid scars occur after the skin has been damaged or wounded, although they can appear without injury, trauma, or warning. Keloid scars can affect anyone, but they are more common in people with dark skin.

Keloid scars are commonly found in areas such as the:

  • Chest
  • Head
  • Neck
  • Earlobes

Keloid Scar Treatment

What does Keloid Scar Removal in London involve?

  1. Keloid scar removal is suitable for all skin types.
  2. It can be completed using a course of corticosteroid injections.
  3. A specially trained dermatologist will inject the steroid solution directly into the keloid scar, which will help to diminish its appearance.
  4. The steroids work by breaking down the bonds between collagen fibres, which helps to reduce the amount of scar tissue beneath the skin.

Keloid Scar Removal FAQs

Is the keloid scar removal painful?

Some individuals do feel some discomfort following their keloid scar removal in London. What is usually experienced is a slight stinging sensation when the injection is made. This procedure is quick and requires no downtime at all, so you are usually able to return to work, and resume all normal activities, straight after treatment.

How long does keloid scar removal take?

Steroid injections are a safe and effective keloid scar treatment in London and usually takes 15 – 30 minutes per session. Most keloid scar removal courses in London require around 6 to 8 sessions, depending on the size and location of the scar. It is best to book a consultation with one of our specialists to figure out what the average length of time will be for you.

How soon will I see results from keloid scar treatment?

With steroid keloid scar treatments, you should notice an improvement after your first treatment, however you will require several sessions to help the scar to flatten out and fade in colour. It is very unlikely that you won’t see results, but please get in touch on the occasion that the keloid scar does not diminish.

How long will the results of keloid scar removal last?

In most cases the results are permanent, however very occasionally keloid scars can return to the same area, in which case keloid scar treatment in London can be repeated. On the occasion that they do reappear, feel free to book another appointment with EFMEDISPA and we will do all that we can to help you with your keloid scar removal.

After suffering with severe digestive problems for many years, I decided to book a course of hydrotherapy treats at EE Medispa in Chelsea. Having never had this treatment I was quite nervous but the staff and my practitioner Victoria made the whole process very comfortable. I have now been seeing Victoria for regular sessions for about two months and I can honestly say it has changed my life. I have completely changed my diet and the process of detoxification has helped me eliminate everything that was causing me to feel so unwell for many years. I would highly recommend this service to anyone with digestive issues. I am now on my second course of treatments and continue to see great results. This is one of the best investments in my health I have ever made. Thank you so much Victoria! : )

The Zone Out treatment was fantastic, it relaxed my mind and body, clearing my head of all that “London” stress … Victoria, the Hydrotherapist was incredibly knowledgeable and informative; above all making me feel at ease …I can’t wait to come back again!

Jennifer Burton

Zone Out Colonic Hydrotherapy

I had Zone Out Colonic Hydrotherapy. I was immediately at ease with Victoria, she was both friendly and professional. I wasn't sure what to expect with this treatment but within a few minutes of it starting I was already in an extremely relaxed, almost meditative state. It was like being transported into a zone between asleep and awake where you are totally at calm - thoughts can enter your mind but you just let them float away. Afterwards I felt as though I had been asleep for a hours, I was relaxed but also rejuvenated. I would highly recommend trying this!

Zone Out Colonic Hydrotherapy

I had the Colonic; Victoria thoroughly explained every part of the procedure, which made for a relaxing experience. I can’t wait to come back again!

Camilla Pryce

Colonic Irrigation

Victoria floats in, complete with bangles and maxiskirt, far from the overall-clad dominatrix I had envisaged. The consultation and treatment explanation are extensive but reassuring and by the time I am gowned up on the bed, I’d honestly trust her with my life. The process is much more civilised than you’d think. Within four sessions, my eyes are brighter, my skin is clearer and I have the energy of a five-year old on a sugar high. The difference is astounding.”

Victoria is incredibly nice about what must be one of the world’s least appealing jobs…I feel so slim, spritely and ready for a dance with John Travolta
