Should I do plasma pen if I'm at high risk for keloid scarring?

just because someone is at risk for keloids doesnt mean they cant do. lasers or plasma pen. I suggest you pretreat your skin with cosmelan, growth factors, and vivatia, and see an expert to determine what is the best long term plan with lasers and localized small areas of plasma pen to start.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear Niki, Thank you for your inquiry. Fibroblast Plasma Pen is definitely not an option for you. You might want to seek the advice of a Board Certified Dermatologist in your area regarding other treatment option suitable for you.Best of luck ! 

I would avoid using plasma pen in the areas where you might keloid. Typically, no one forms keloids on eyelids, so it could be used there. If you form the large thick keloids, I suggest avoiding it all together.

No. Plasma pen is contraindicated for individuals prone to keloid scarring. You don't mention what you are hoping to correct? There are many excellent devices/treatments available for just about every skin concern out there.

High risk for keloid scarring is an absolute contraindication! It could cause keloids and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Hello and thank you for your question. I don’t think the plasma pen is a good option for you if you’re prone to keloids. I suggest making an in person appointment with a reputable doctor and discuss what is your best option. Best wishes to you.Dr. T
