Are you self-conscious about raised, thickened scars that seem to grow beyond the original wound?

With patient-centered care and a commitment to natural-looking results, you’ll receive personalized treatment in a private, comfortable setting designed for your safety and peace of mind.
What Is Keloid Revision?
Keloid revision is a surgical procedure that removes or reduces keloid scars—thick, raised areas of scar tissue that extend beyond the boundaries of the original injury. Unlike normal scars, keloids can continue to grow over time and may cause itching, tenderness, or discomfort. Revision techniques can include surgical excision, steroid injections, laser therapy, or a combination of approaches tailored to your specific scar.
The goal is to minimize the appearance of the keloid, improve skin texture, and prevent regrowth. Because keloids tend to recur, your provider will develop a comprehensive treatment plan that may include post-surgical care strategies to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Benefits of Keloid Revision
Keloid revision offers both cosmetic and functional improvements that can significantly enhance your quality of life. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Reduces the size and thickness of raised scars
- Improves skin texture and tone
- Relieves discomfort, itching, or tenderness
- Boosts self-confidence and comfort in your skin
- Creates a smoother, more natural appearance
- Can be combined with other skin procedures for comprehensive results
Are You a Candidate for Keloid Revision?
Keloid revision may be right for you if you have a raised, thickened scar that extends beyond the original wound site and causes physical discomfort or cosmetic concern. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and understand that keloids can sometimes recur even after treatment.
During a consultation at Rejuuuuve4You, Dr. Zaidan will evaluate your scar, discuss your goals, and determine the best approach for your unique needs. You’ll also receive guidance on minimizing the risk of keloid recurrence after your procedure.
The Keloid Revision Procedure
Keloid revision is typically performed as an outpatient procedure in our state-of-the-art facility. Depending on the size and location of the keloid, local or general anesthesia may be used for your comfort. Your provider will carefully excise the keloid tissue and may use additional techniques such as steroid injections, pressure therapy, or laser treatment to optimize your results and reduce the chance of regrowth.
The procedure usually takes between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on the scar’s complexity. You’ll be provided with detailed post-operative instructions to support healing and minimize scarring.
Recovery and Results
Recovery from keloid revision is generally straightforward. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the treatment site, which typically resolves within a few days to a week. Most patients can return to light activities within a few days, though you’ll need to avoid strenuous exercise and sun exposure during the initial healing period.
Results continue to improve over several weeks as the treated area heals. With proper post-operative care and follow-up treatments if needed, you can enjoy smoother, more refined skin and relief from the discomfort associated with keloids. Because keloids can recur, ongoing monitoring and preventive care may be recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Keloids tend to recur, even after surgical removal. However, combining surgical excision with additional treatments such as steroid injections, pressure therapy, or radiation can significantly reduce the risk of regrowth. Your provider will create a personalized plan to minimize the risk of recurrence and closely monitor your healing.
The procedure itself is performed under anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during surgery. Afterward, you may experience mild discomfort, tenderness, or itching at the treatment site. Any discomfort is typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relief and resolves within a few days.
Initial improvements are visible within the first few weeks as swelling subsides. However, full results develop over several months as the treated area heals and matures. Your provider will schedule follow-up appointments to track your progress and ensure optimal healing.
