I have a keloid behind my ear and on top of my left ear. What treatment should I have get rid of them, and how much will it cost?
Answer: Starting cost for a keloid removal is $800 Keloid scars are characterized by their growth potential and increased degree of inflammation within the skin. Unlike non-inflamed scars, keloids have the potential for growth beyond the original footprint of injury. Our office specializes in the management of keloids, whether single or multiple, using a combination platform that includes lasers, RF, scar modulation, Parke-Davis Scar Protocols, and injection therapy. Some keloids will require surgical intervention as an initial step for treatment.

Answer: Procedure and Cost for Removing Keloid on Ear If steroid injection which shrinks the keloid does not meet your objectives, the most common method is surgical excision. The cost for keloid removal like other cosmetic surgery varies considerably across the country and even in the same area. South Florida tends to have lower fees then more expensive areas such as New York or Los Angeles. We charge starting at $750 + MD Anesthesia related costs (if needed). Since you can get quality work at lower costs, patients will travel from throughout the state, the country, and internationally to have surgery in South Florida. To ensure that you are receiving quality work at the most cost effective prices, consult with board certified plastic surgeons that own their own nationally accredited facilities. The quality must be maintained at the highest level to maintain accreditation. The surgeons also have incentive to hire and train quality staff (to ensure that surgery is efficient and enjoyable), to ensure comfortable and private facilities (to encourage referral), and to eliminate waste (to ensure that these facilities can compete effectively).

Answer: Keloid treatment Ear keloids can initially be managed with a series of injections with cortisone. If after the series of injections, the appearance of the keloids still is not to your satisfaction, excision can be considered. The recurrence rate of keloids after excision, however, can be quite high (50% or greater) although there are additional measures that can be taken to reduce that risk including application of special pressure earrings and continued injection of the surgical site after surgical removal of the keloid. You would need to call around to various offices of dermatologists and plastic surgeons to obtain pricing.

Answer: Keloid procedure Keloids can be challenging becuase they can recur. Sometimes they are excised and injected with steroids repeatedly. Sometimes local radiation is needed after excision. The fee can vary from region to regio so it is difficult to give you a fee quote.
