How Can I Prevent Keloid Formation?

 

If you have a personal or family history of keloids, you are at a higher risk of developing one after any skin injury. To reduce your risk:


Avoid elective trauma: Consider avoiding piercings, tattoos, or any non-essential skin procedures.

Treat acne promptly: Address acne early to prevent potential keloid formation from inflamed lesions.

Inform Your Surgeon: If you’re planning skin surgery, make sure to inform your surgeon about your keloid history.

Seek Early Medical Attention: If you notice a scar that is growing instead of shrinking, seek medical attention immediately to prevent further growth.
