Abstract
Keloids are scars that grow beyond the boundaries of a cutaneous injury, inflammation, surgical incision, or burn. They are the result of an overgrowth of dense fibrous tissue that usually develops after healing of a skin injury, and do not usually regress spontaneously. In addition to symptomatic relief, cosmetic concern is the primary reason patients seek medical intervention. Therapeutic options such as occlusion dressings, intralesional corticosteroids or interferon injections, silicone gel application, cryotherapy, irradiation, and ablative lasers have been used in various combinations. We present the results from two patients who underwent UVA1 laser therapy.
