Keloid scars are a form of abnormal scarring that occur in susceptible individuals and often appear to be more common in darker skin types. Often observed between the ages of 10 and 30 years, and associated with skin trauma or inflammation, their diagnosis is a clinical one. Unfortunately, no definitive treatment is currently available, but options include injectable preparations and cryotherapy, as well as surgery and radiotherapy. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson looks at the aetiology, epidemiology and presentation of keloid scars as well as the efficacy of current treatments.Access episode show notes containing key references and take-home points at:https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/dermatology/ep-172-keloid-scars (https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/dermatology/ep-172-keloid-scars).Did you know?
