Understanding Keloid Scars and Their Challenges
1. What Are Keloid Scars?
Keloid scars are raised and firm growths of fibrous tissue develop due to an overproduction of collagen during the healing process. They can grow larger than the original wound and may cause discomfort, itching, or restricted movement.
2. What Causes Keloid Scars?
While keloid scars can occur in anyone, certain factors increase their likelihood, such as:
- Genetics, especially in people with darker skin tones
- Skin trauma, including cuts, burns, or piercings
- Repeated irritation to a wound site
3. What Are the Treatment Goals?
Our approach aims to:
- Flatten the scar and improve the skin’s texture.
- Reduce irritation or discomfort caused by the scar.
- Prevent further growth or recurrence of the keloid.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Keloid Scar Treatment in Vienna
During your first visit, I’ll conduct a comprehensive consultation that includes a detailed skin evaluation using advanced diagnostic tools. I’ll carefully review your medical history, discuss your lifestyle factors, and examine the characteristics of your scar to determine the best course of treatment. This thorough assessment helps me create your personalized treatment plan.
How is my treatment plan developed?
We create your treatment plan based on your specific diagnosis and needs. In my experience, combining various proven approaches yields the best results.
How long will I need treatment?
From my experience treating keloid scars, the duration of treatment varies for each person. It depends on your scar’s size, location, and how you respond to the selected treatments. I typically see my patients experiencing improvements within a few weeks to several months. I’ll monitor your progress regularly and adjust your treatment plan to ensure the best possible results.
Are you a good candidate for keloid scar treatment?
I work with clients experiencing a wide range of keloid scars. In my professional opinion, you’re likely a good candidate if you:
- Have a keloid that is painful or limits movement
- Are concerned about the appearance of a raised scar
- Have had limited success with other treatments
- Are seeking expert care for scar reduction and prevention
How do I monitor your progress?
I track your improvement using advanced imaging technology, detailed measurements, and progress photos. I document changes in your scar’s size, texture, and color during each visit. This ongoing monitoring allows me to fine-tune your treatment plan and ensure optimal results.
