Understanding keloid scars
At Levirgo Aesthetics Clinic, we understand how frustrating keloid scars can be, and how much they can affect your confidence. Whether they developed after surgery, piercings, acne or an injury, keloids tend to grow larger than the original wound and can become itchy, painful or unsightly. We offer safe, tailored solutions for keloid removal and excision to restore your skin’s natural appearance and texture.
A keloid is a type of raised scar that grows beyond the boundary of the original wound, caused by excessive collagen production during healing. Unlike hypertrophic scars, keloids continue to grow and may feel firm, shiny and rubbery. They are not harmful, but they can be emotionally and physically uncomfortable, especially when visible or irritated by clothing or jewellery.
In the heart of Knightsbridge, London, our clinic combines medical expertise with cosmetic care in a discreet, professional and calming environment.
Our keloid removal approach
We offer two main options. In many cases a combination of both is recommended to achieve the best result and minimise the chance of recurrence.
Keloid excision
Surgical removal for large or firm keloids. Our clinicians perform precise excision under local anaesthesia. This eliminates the keloid and creates a fresh, flatter wound that can heal more naturally.
At a glance
- Large or firm keloids
- Local anaesthesia
- Typically 30 to 60 minutes
- Aftercare to prevent regrowth
Keloid injection
Corticosteroid therapy for smaller or recurring keloids. We may use targeted steroid injections to reduce inflammation, soften the scar and flatten the raised tissue over time.
At a glance
- Smaller or recurring keloids
- Non-surgical
- Quicker than excision
- Sessions 3 to 4 weeks apart

What to expect during treatment
Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation, where we assess the keloid type, its location and your medical history.
-
In-depth consultation
We assess your keloid and medical history, then recommend excision, injections or a combination of both.
-
Local anaesthesia
For excision, the area is numbed with local anaesthesia before the procedure begins.
-
Precise removal
The keloid is carefully excised. The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on size.
-
Aftercare to prevent regrowth
We may apply pressure dressings or recommend preventative steroid therapy to help prevent the keloid returning.
Injection treatment is quicker and may require a series of sessions spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart.
Questions about keloid removal
Can't see your question? Our team is happy to talk it through before you book.
What is the difference between a keloid and a hypertrophic scar?
Both are raised scars, but a keloid grows beyond the boundary of the original wound because of excessive collagen production during healing. Unlike hypertrophic scars, keloids continue to grow and may feel firm, shiny and rubbery.
How long does keloid excision take?
Excision is performed under local anaesthesia and typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the keloid.
Can a keloid come back after removal?
Regrowth is possible, which is why we may apply pressure dressings or recommend preventative steroid therapy after excision. In many cases a combination of excision and injections is recommended to minimise the chance of recurrence.
Do I need a consultation before treatment?
Yes, and it protects you. Every mole, lesion or skin concern is medically assessed first, so that anything requiring further investigation is identified before cosmetic treatment is considered.
Will removal leave a scar?
Our techniques are chosen to minimise scarring: precision instruments, appropriate anaesthetic and careful aftercare. Most clients are left with minimal or no visible marks once healed, and we will always be honest about what to expect for your skin type.
How quickly will my skin heal?
Most minor removals heal within one to two weeks. Resurfacing treatments such as CO2 laser involve a few days of redness followed by progressive improvement over several weeks. We provide a full aftercare plan and remain available throughout your healing.

I went a bit less than two months ago to Levirgo clinic to slim down the belly pouch left from my two pregnancies. Fatiya was very professional. She explained the procedure before the treatment and proceeded with zeal and care. I am waiting to see the results after 12 weeks but so far (week 9) I already see a small reduction. I recommend the clinic and TruSculpt iD.

I visited Levirgo Clinic to help with back pain and tight shoulder muscle recovery from a sports injury, and I’m beyond happy with the results! The TruFlex treatment not only relieved my lower back pain but also reduced the inflammation and helped strengthen my back muscles. After just a few sessions I felt a noticeable increase in mobility and my muscle strength coming back — a game changer for getting back to my sport. Above all, the team has been beyond helpful and friendly, taking the time to get to know me and tailor the treatment to my injuries. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an effective solution for back pain or muscle strengthening after an injury.

I’m a dad with two kids, a desk job, and no time to exercise — this clinic has been a game changer. They tailored their treatments to my needs, which helped me slim down and tone up without needing the gym. I am very pleased with the results. Hannah and the team are friendly, well informed, and made me feel comfortable, and the sessions are quick so it was easy to fit in.

I recently lost a lot of weight and my face was extremely droopy — I looked older than my actual age — so I decided to have fillers, anti-wrinkle treatment and a thread lift. The doctor was extremely professional and listened to my concerns as I was worried about looking plastic and unnatural. She spent a lot of time explaining the process, asked me to show a picture of my ideal face, and reassured me about the products used. The process was smooth and the result is magical: youthful skin and a real self-esteem boost. Prices are fair and the staff are friendly. I will definitely be back.

I went to Levirgo for body contouring with TruSculpt Flex. I have a healthy, active lifestyle but wanted to recover from an injury and work on my abs while I couldn’t go to the gym. The team are very professional and listen before approaching any treatment. Each session was bespoke and tailored to my condition. The result was fast — even more effective than gym alone. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a body treatment or fat loss.
