Keloid Removal Before & After Case 266

This patient came to our office seeking relief from a large keloid scar on her ear. The scar had not only altered the natural shape of her ear but also caused daily discomfort, especially when dressing or sleeping. Given her tendency toward keloid formation, she had concerns about both immediate appearance and the risk of recurrence after removal.

She underwent keloid removal in Santa Rosa performed by Dr. Greg Chernoff. The procedure involved careful surgical excision of the keloid scar, followed by application of exosomes—an advanced technique intended to limit the likelihood of the keloid returning. Dr. Chernoff also took care to shape the ear after removal, aiming to restore as much of the ear’s original form as possible.

After healing, the patient noted significant improvement in comfort and confidence. The ear retained its natural contour with no signs of the previous keloid. There was no tenderness or sensitivity when performing daily tasks.
