Hello Thank you for trusting HCM Dear keloids may due to after a skin injury, your cells try to repair the damage by forming a scar. This scar holds the wound together. In some people, the scar keeps forming long after the wound heals. People with darker skin, such as black, Hispanic, and Asian people, are 15 to 20 times more likely to get keloids. But, some people with lighter skin also get them. Keloids are more common in people younger than 30 years, in pregnant women, and in teenagers going through puberty. There are many treatments for keloids, but no one treatment works for everyone. Talk to your doctor about which option is best for you. Common treatments include corticosteroid shots that can reduce the scar, freezing the scar, and silicone sheets worn over the scar. Sometimes, laser therapy can help. Some of these treatments are expensive and take time to work. Larger keloids can be removed with surgery, and treatment with shots and silicone sheets can help keep them from coming back. If have more questions feel free to ask. Take care
