Do facial peels/exfoliation hold any effect on keloids?
Answers: First, here's a little history on keloids.
Keloids were described by Egyptian surgeons in the order of 1700 BCE. Baron Jean Louis Alibert (1768-1837) identified the keloid as an entity in 1806. He called them cancroide. Later he changed the heading to cheloide to avoid the connotation of cancer. The word is derived from the Greek chele, meaning crab's claw, and the suffix -oid, meaning resembling. His clinic at the Hospital St.Louis was for many years the world’s crux for dermatology.
These keloid scars are more visible on the skin surface explicitly raised and very unsightly. It is cause by overgrowth of the flesh from which an injury occurred. The skin can be damaged by breakouts and acne keloid scar develop on the spot where the pimple appeared. Your acne may be treated but leaves a reminder of your acne experience and these scars are highly difficult to treat.
Although keloid acne are difficult to treat, you can make them less detectable and noticeable over time when the bump becomes even on the surface skin. A technique which can give a hand you lose that nasty keloid out of your face. Applying pressure on the bump for a extent of time for around 3 to 5 minutes, do this three times a day. You can see results after a week and you can a difference and noticeable results.
So, from what I've researched, a chemical peel/exfoliating will not injure the keloid. My suggestion is not to rub the chemical too hard into the keloid which can probably irritate it and cause it to itch as keloids repeatedly do.
Hope this helps,
