Keloid Treatments in Hongdae – Kleam Clinic

Flatten Raised Scars. Reduce Redness. Restore Skin Smoothness and Comfort.

At Kleam Clinic Hongdae, we offer specialized treatments for keloid and hypertrophic scars, helping patients manage uncomfortable, raised scars that persist long after a wound has healed. Whether caused by acne, surgery, piercings, or injury, our targeted therapies are designed to flatten, fade, and prevent recurrence of keloids.

What is a Keloid?

A keloid is a type of overgrown scar that develops when the body produces too much collagen during wound healing. Keloids extend beyond the original injury site, and can be raised, firm, itchy, red, or painful. Unlike normal scars, keloids typically do not resolve on their own.

Common Causes of Keloids

• Acne scars
• Piercings (ears, chest, nose)
• Cuts or burns
• Surgical incisions
• Vaccination sites
• Insect bites

What Keloid Treatments Are Available at Kleam Clinic Hongdae?

We offer a comprehensive, multi-modal approach to keloid management, including:

• Steroid Injections (Triamcinolone) – First-line treatment to flatten and soften raised scars
• 5-FU (Fluorouracil) Injections – Used alone or with steroids for resistant cases
• Laser Therapy (PICO or Fractional Laser) – Reduces redness and texture irregularities
• Cryotherapy – Freezes and shrinks small keloids, especially earlobe scars
• Silicone Gel or Dressings – Supportive home care for prevention and maintenance
• Surgical Excision + Post-op Injection – For large or recurring keloids (with careful follow-up)

Is the Procedure Painful?

Injection discomfort is minimal and well-tolerated. Topical numbing or local anesthesia can be applied depending on the treatment area. Most procedures are quick and require no downtime.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

Most keloids require a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Results vary depending on scar size, duration, and location. Ongoing maintenance may be necessary for stubborn or recurring cases.

When Will I See Results?

You’ll notice gradual flattening and reduction in redness over several sessions. Relief from itching or tenderness may occur even earlier.

Can Keloids Be Prevented?

If you have a history of keloid formation, early treatment of wounds and acne is essential. We also offer proactive scar care after surgeries or piercings to help prevent keloid development.

Keloid vs. Hypertrophic Scar – What’s the Difference?

Hypertrophic scars stay within the original wound boundary and often fade over time. Keloids extend beyond the injury and are more likely to recur. Both can be treated with similar methods, but keloids often require a more aggressive and prolonged approach.
