Keloid & Scar Treatment in NYC
Physician-directed treatment at Dermacare Medical in Manhattan with Dr. Yuriy Yagudin, customized to the individual patient.
About This Treatment
A keloid grows beyond the original wound boundary, while a hypertrophic scar remains within it. Scar type, symptoms, location and age help determine which treatment or combination is appropriate.

Individualized Evaluation
Dr. Yagudin evaluates whether the aim is reducing height, redness, itching, discomfort or restricted movement. A keloid may require a different plan from a flat scar or a depressed acne scar.
What to Expect
Treatment is chosen for the type and symptoms of the scar. Depending on the finding, a staged or combined approach may be discussed. The recovery and possible effects should be explained for the actual method selected.
Results & Recovery
Scar improvement is assessed over time, and keloids can recur. Follow-up evaluates height, color, symptoms and any unwanted skin changes; additional treatment may be appropriate.
Safety & Candidacy
Tell Dr. Yagudin about medical conditions, medications, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, previous procedures and active skin problems. Procedure-specific risks, benefits and alternatives are reviewed before treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many treatments are needed?
The number varies according to the condition, treatment selected and individual response.
Is there downtime?
Downtime varies by procedure and is reviewed before treatment.
How do I know if I am a candidate?
An in-person evaluation is the best way to confirm the treatment target and discuss appropriate options.
Planning Your Keloid & Scar Treatment
Can a scar be completely erased?
Treatment aims to improve appearance or symptoms. Complete removal of every visible trace cannot be promised.
Can a keloid return after treatment?
Yes. Recurrence is a major consideration, especially after removal alone. Discuss the rationale for any combined or staged treatment.
How many visits are needed?
Some scars require a series and reassessment over months. Ask which finding will be measured and what response would lead to a change in plan.
