Keloid Treatment at Twacha Aesthetic: Restore Clear, Confident Skin
Keloids are a common but often misunderstood skin condition that can affect one’s appearance, comfort, and self-esteem. At Twacha Aesthetic, we understand the emotional and physical impact of keloids, and we are dedicated to offering advanced, evidence-based treatments to help you regain smooth, scar-free skin.
What Are Keloids?
Keloids are a type of raised scar that form due to the skin’s overreaction to injury. Unlike regular scars, keloids continue to grow even after the wound has healed, often becoming larger and more prominent than the original injury. They can appear after:
Acne or chickenpox lesions
Piercings or tattoos
Cuts, burns, or surgical incisions
Insect bites or vaccinations
Keloids are usually harmless, but their appearance — typically shiny, smooth, and firm — can be distressing. They may also cause itching, tenderness, or a burning sensation.
Why Choose Twacha Aesthetic for Keloid Treatment?
At Twacha Aesthetic, we bring together expert dermatologists, cutting-edge technology, and personalized care to treat keloids effectively. Our clinic is known for delivering natural-looking results with minimal recurrence. We assess each patient’s condition in detail and design a tailored treatment plan that suits their skin type, medical history, and lifestyle.
Our Advanced Keloid Treatment Options
We use a multimodal approach to keloid management, combining various therapies for optimal outcomes:
1. Corticosteroid Injections
This is one of the most common and effective treatments for flattening keloids. Steroid injections reduce inflammation, shrink the scar, and ease symptoms like itching and pain.
2. Laser Therapy
We use medical-grade laser technology to reduce the size, color, and hardness of keloids. Laser therapy also stimulates collagen remodeling, improving skin texture over time.
3. Cryotherapy
Freezing the keloid with liquid nitrogen helps destroy excess scar tissue, especially in smaller keloids. It’s often combined with other treatments for better results.
4. Silicone Gel Sheets
These are applied over the keloid to soften and flatten the scar gradually. They’re safe for long-term use and are part of our aftercare recommendations.
5. Surgical Excision (With Caution)
In cases of large or resistant keloids, minor surgery might be performed. However, we always pair surgery with post-operative treatments like steroid injections or radiation therapy to prevent regrowth.
Preventing Keloid Recurrence
One of the biggest challenges with keloid scars is recurrence. At Twacha Aesthetic, we focus not only on treatment but also on long-term prevention:
Custom skincare routines to prevent skin trauma
Post-treatment monitoring and follow-ups
Education on minimizing triggers such as piercings or unnecessary skin injuries
Who Can Get Keloids?
Keloids can affect anyone, but certain groups are at higher risk:
People with darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick skin types IV–VI)
Individuals with a family history of keloids
People between the ages of 10 and 30
Those undergoing frequent skin trauma
If you fall into any of these categories and have a history of abnormal scarring, it’s best to consult a skin specialist before undergoing piercings, surgeries, or aesthetic treatments.
