Hello! When I was child I had a very big injury. After wound passed, scars stayed . These scars during the time pass became keloids. Now, I am wondering if keloids can be removed by surgery. If this can be done, I will go to surgery. This is very important to me and I am waiting your prompt reply.
Hello! Keloids are pretty unpleasant scars and I understand you. Unfortunately, I must tell you first this: no scar can be removed completely (including keloid). But, surgery can reduce keloids. I think that you should try with surgery. Surgeon will remove keloids at the places where they meet normal tissue.
You can have surgery to remove Keloids. My son got a keloid after a hernia repair surgery soon after a keloid grew over the scar and it was large (2.5 inches long and alomost 1 inch high). I took him to several surgeons that said they could not help us but found a great plastic surgeon that could help. He removed the keloid with surgery and injected the area with steriods after surgery and once a week for 6 months after the surgery. That was 4 years ago - my son never had a keloid return to that site. the key is a great plastic surgeon that knows about keloids, no stitches for scars always request Dermabond (a glue like closure) & request and follow through with the steriod injections.
Hope this helps
