Steroid injections are a safe and effective keloid scar treatment in London and usually takes 15 – 30 minutes per session. Most keloid scar removal courses in London require around 6 to 8 sessions, depending on the size and location of the scar. It is best to book a consultation with one of our specialists to figure out what the average length of time will be for you.
With steroid keloid scar treatments, you should notice an improvement after your first treatment, however you will require several sessions to help the scar to flatten out and fade in colour. It is very unlikely that you won’t see results, but please get in touch on the occasion that the keloid scar does not diminish.
In most cases the results are permanent, however very occasionally keloid scars can return to the same area, in which case keloid scar treatment in London can be repeated. On the occasion that they do reappear, feel free to book another appointment with EFMEDISPA and we will do all that we can to help you with your keloid scar removal.
