Keloids are stubborn, raised scars that can keep growing and they need an expert plan, not a one-size-fits-all fix. Our surgeons assess your keloid and tailor treatment to flatten and improve it with your treatment plan fixed in writing at consultation.
Decided to choose here for Keloid removal per the reviews as NHS wait times are too long. I was not disappointed, staff were very welcoming and friendly. They were very professional and gave me practical advice and a snappy timeline to effectively get rid of my keloids. Called up on Tuesday at 11am and got an appointment at 5:45 for the same day. Highly recommend. -OdhrànPosted on Google

A keloid is more than a scar: it's overgrown scar tissue that can keep growing and tends to come back if treated carelessly. We assess yours and build a personalised plan because the right approach depends on the keloid's size, site and history.
Your consultation is with the surgeon overseeing your care. We're honest about what's realistic: keloids can be significantly improved and flattened, and we'll set clear expectations from the start.
Your surgeon examines the keloid, reviews your history and explains what's realistic.
We agree the right combination of treatments and a clear treatment plan.
Many patients begin treatment at this stage, often with the first injection.
Follow-up therapies and scar care continue to keep the keloid controlled.
Keloids are raised scars that grow beyond the boundary of the original wound, caused by excessive collagen during healing and they can continue to grow over time.
They most often appear on the earlobes (after piercings), chest, shoulders, upper back, face and neck, and are more common with a genetic tendency, in darker skin tones, and between the ages of 10 and 30.
Keloids are harmless but can itch, feel tender, and cause real self-consciousness. Existing keloid tissue can be treated and improved but because keloids have a tendency to recur, the right plan usually combines treatments and ongoing care.
We set clear expectations. Keloids can be flattened and improved and we're upfront about recurrence.
Therapies are often combined for the best result, with aftercare such as compression.
Follow-up therapies may continue over several months to keep the keloid managed.
Your surgeon recommends the right combination based on your keloid's size, site and history which would involve flattening it and reducing the chance of regrowth.
Injections reduce inflammation and excess collagen to flatten the keloid, usually over a course of sessions and is often the mainstay of keloid treatment.
For suitable cases we combine therapies including compression and surgical correction where appropriate to improve the result and limit recurrence.
Your consultation is with the surgeon who would perform your procedure. If you treat with us, you don't pay for it twice and the price you're quoted is the price you pay, confirmed in writing with no hidden extras.
Your surgeon recommends removal, you're happy to go ahead, and it's done in the same visit.
You'd rather think it over or pick a date that suits you. Your consultation fee follows you.
You want a specialist opinion with no obligation. You'll leave with a diagnosis and a fixed quotation.
Consultation and treatment together, tailored to your keloid.
A course of injections is quoted clearly at consultation based on size, site and plan.
Fixed quotation at consultation. Final fees depend on the size, number, site and complexity of the keloid and are confirmed in writing before any treatment.
Because the work is done by GMC-registered surgeons, we back it:
We set realistic expectations and tailor treatment to your keloid with no false promises about a single 'cure'.
Every procedure is performed by a GMC-registered surgeon, with your treatment plan fixed in writing before treatment.
Existing keloid tissue can be treated, flattened and significantly improved, but keloids have a tendency to reoccur so the goal is lasting control through a tailored, combined plan rather than a single 'cure'. We'll be honest about what's realistic for you.
Your price is confirmed in writing at your consultation and depends on the keloid's size and site and your treatment plan. Most keloids need a tailored course rather than a single session. The consultation fee is deductible from your treatment cost. We never upsell.
Injections and any procedure are done under local or topical anaesthetic and are well tolerated. Some treatments cause brief discomfort, which your team will talk you through.
Most keloids need a course of treatment rather than a single session, often followed by aftercare over several months. Your surgeon will give you a clear plan at consultation.
Surgery alone often makes keloids worse, as it can trigger a larger one. That's why surgical correction, when used, is combined with other therapies and careful aftercare to limit recurrence.
