I'm a white female in my 20's and considering geting liposuction. I've been told I have keloid scaring after I had my ears pierced. I'm wanting to know if I'll get these scars from a liposuction procedure? If so, will they be big?

Answer: Liposuction scars rarely ever turn keloidal Even if you do get keloids from earlobe piercings, it is unlikely that you would develop keloids in the tiny liposuction scars. Any scarring can be prevented or treated with cortisone creams or injections starting about 2 weeks after the liposuction procedure so don't worry. Get your liposuction done now.

Answer: Probably not. Keloids are common in ear lobes, but not in liposuction scars. It can happen but the scars are hidden and are quite small. Discuss this with the surgeon before surgery.
