Keloid

A keloid scar is a thick raised scar. Keloid growth might be triggered by any sort of skin injury — an insect bite, acne, an injection, body piercing, burns, hair removal, and even minor scratches and bumps. Sometimes keloids form for no obvious reason. If you’re prone to developing keloids, you might get them in more than one place.
A treatment plan for keloids may include injections of corticosteroids and other topical medications. These injections are often part a treatment plan for keloids. When injected into the keloid, these medicines help to shrink the scar. Patients usually receive a series of injections. The first injections tend to relieve symptoms and make the keloid feel softer. Between 50% and 80% of keloids shrink after being injected.
