Cryotherapy with Hydrozid for Keloids

Keloids are overgrown, raised scars that occur when the skin heals from an injury and produces too much collagen. Treating keloids can be challenging due to their tendency to recur after traditional treatments. One effective solution is cryotherapy with Hydrozid, a minimally invasive approach that targets keloid tissue by freezing it, often in combination with other treatments for optimal results.

Cryotherapy involves freezing the keloid tissue using extreme cold, typically through liquid nitrogen or Hydrozid (a form of cryosurgical agent). The freezing process destroys excess scar tissue and promotes new, healthy skin to form in its place. By freezing and destroying the keloid cells, the treatment reduces the size of the scar and can relieve symptoms such as itching and discomfort.

Dermatologists often recommend cryotherapy for keloid treatment for its ability to target deeper tissue without invasive surgery. Some reasons include:

• Minimally invasive: No cutting or extensive recovery time needed.
• Symptom relief: Effectively reduces itching, pain, and sensitivity associated with keloids.
• Combination therapy: Cryotherapy is often used alongside steroid injections or laser treatments for enhanced results.

• Non-surgical: Avoids the risks associated with surgical excision.
• Minimal discomfort: The freezing process is relatively quick with minimal discomfort.
• Reduction in scar size: Effectively shrinks keloids and improves the skin’s texture.
• Quick procedure: Treatment sessions are brief, making it a convenient option.
