Keloids are benign raised scars that are formed after cutaneous insult. Normally, cutaneous injury results in wound closure and a flat scar. Some individuals are prone to alterations in the healing process that result in excessive tissue proliferation and excess collagen in the skin during the healing process and the formation of a keloid. The keloid can appear months years after the cutaneous insult and can continue to grow indefinitely. This activity details the evaluation and treatment of keloids and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the management and education of patients with this condition.
