Raised Scar & Keloid Treatment by Dr. Vicky Jain · Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon
Thick, raised scars can be uncomfortable and self-conscious to live with, especially when they itch or keep growing. Dr. Vicky Jain treats hypertrophic scars and keloids with a considered, step-by-step plan to flatten and calm them.
Hypertrophic scars and keloids are types of thick, raised scars that form when the skin heals after an injury, surgery, burn, or even minor cuts like acne or piercings. A hypertrophic scar stays within the boundaries of the original wound, while a keloid grows beyond the wound edges and may continue to enlarge.
Dr. Vicky Jain helps patients manage these scars through personalized treatments like silicone therapy, steroid injections, laser treatment, and surgery depending on scar size, type, location, and skin response.
Recovery varies by treatment. Non-surgical scar protocols can continue for months, while surgical revision usually needs a few weeks plus scar modulation and follow-up.
