Keloid scars are more common on the upper chest, shoulders, head (especially the earlobes after a piercing), neck and rarely on the face. They may cause pain, itch, or tenderness. While a keloid is growing, it can feel itchy, painful, or both. Keloids on the chest are often tender. Keloids can be as small as a pinhead or as orange. Injury is the common predisposing factor causing keloids only in predisposed individuals.

In the Athens South Dermatology Clinic, the diagnosis of keloids is always performed by the expert dermatologist Dr. Nektarios Logaras with the help of the advanced technology of Digital Dermatoscope the Fotofinder ATBM System.

Then, he treats them with the innovative Lasers that are available in our clinic, the appropriate for each case since each lesion may require different treatment. In any case, the result is impressive since the lesions are treated with a near-zero relapse rate, painless with the use of local anesthesia and with an excellent aesthetic result.
