How it works
How does Intralesional Steroid Injection work?
Intralesional steroid injection works by weakening the bonds between collagen fibers responsible for keloid and hypertrophic scars. It also helps minimize the formation of new scar tissue by reducing inflammation and managing excess collagen production. This treatment softens and flattens scars, allowing them to blend more naturally with the surrounding tissue.

About intralesional steroid injection
What condition it treats
Hypertrophic and keloid scars are raised scars resulting from abnormal collagen production during wound healing. Intralesional steroid injection manages inflammation and modulates collagen levels in the skin to help minimize the appearance of scars.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions?
During the procedure you may feel some discomfort. Numb cream will be applied to ensure maximum comfort. However if you have low tolerance to pain, local anesthetic may be combined with steroid solution to further reduce pain/discomfort.
Depending on the size and severity of the scar, typically 5 sessions are needed every 4 to 6 weeks.
This procedure is best done by an experienced doctor because of the possible side effects which are skin thinning, skin atrophy(depression or pitting in the skin), and hypopigmentation. However, these are usually temporary and will improve after stopping the treatment.
