Having keloids after rhinoplasty is the biggest nightmare of many beauty followers. Having a higher and more elegant nose shape is meaningless if you have ugly scars. The following article shall provide more information for you to understand the causes and treatments for keloids after rhinoplasty.

WHAT IS KELOID AFTER RHINOPLASTY?

Keloid is the result of an overgrowth of fibrous tissue after skin damage, which causes the loss of balance between anabolism and catabolism in the wound healing process, causing the damaged skin to become spreading and raised above the surface of the skin. Keloids will never disappear over time. Keloids are purple or pink, wrinkled skin surface, often cause an itchy, sometimes painful sensation to the touch.

Keloid scars are different from hypertrophic scars. Hypertrophic scars are scars that do not grow beyond the boundaries of the original wound and keloids as scars that spread into the surrounding normal skin. Hypertrophic scars usually grow and recede after 1 to 2 years.

THE CAUSES OF KELOIDS AFTER RHINOPLASTY

Natural health state

Not everyone is born with a good health state. Therefore, before undergoing any surgical method, you need to anticipate the possible risks and preview the treatment plan when encountered.

Improper diets

After undergoing rhinoplasty, proper diets play an extremely important role. Because the doctor will make incisions in the skin causing damage to that area. Therefore, it takes time for the skin to recover.

Normally, customers must avoid foods containing substances that cause the formation of keloids, such as chicken, water spinach, etc. At the same time, doctors will determine how long you should abstain from such food to ensure there would not be any problems.

Lots of people accidentally forgot that they need to abstain from such food during their daily meals. Therefore, get in the habit of paying more attention to your daily meals.
