Keloids & Scars
Scar & Keloid Treatment
Scarring is a natural part of the skin’s healing process — but not all scars heal the same way. At Clare Dermatology, we assess and treat a range of scar types, from hypertrophic and atrophic scars to keloids, which can grow well beyond the original wound. Our physician-led approach is tailored to your skin type, scar history, and treatment goals.
SCAR TYPES
- Hyperthropic Scars
- Atrophic Scars (acne pitting)
- Keloids
- Post-surgical Scarring
TREATMENT OPTIONS
What We Can Do For You
- Corticosteroid Injections — Reduce inflammation and shrink raised scar tissue
- Laser Therapy (Coming Soon) — Reduces redness and flattens the scar surface
- Cryotherapy (Coming Soon) — Freezes scar tissue from the inside out to reduce size
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Treatment Experience
Assessment — Your dermatologist evaluates the scar’s type, age, and location to ensure we choose the safest, most effective path forward for your skin.
Treatment — The procedure is performed quickly and precisely. For keloids, specialized injections are placed directly into the scar tissue to minimize discomfort and maximize flattening.
Aftercare & Home Optimization — We guide you on proper recovery, crucial sun protection to prevent darkening, and recommend clinically proven medical-grade silicone sheets or gels you can purchase online to support your results at home.
Recovery — Minimal to no downtime for current injection treatments; you can return to your day immediately.
Duration — 15–30 minutes per session.
Results — Gradual softening and flattening over a few weeks; a personalized series of sessions is usually needed.
