Ending Keloid Suffering in African American Patients with Innovative Technology
Style Magazine Newswire | 7/27/2018, 10:50 a.m.
Almost 18 million people suffer from keloids, which are overgrowths of scar tissue around common skin injuries, including surgeries (even C-sections), acne, piercings or cuts. Among them, African-Americans are seven times more prone. For patients, these scars can significantly impact physical appearance and even cause anxiety and depression.
While keloids are typically surgically removed, up to 90 percent of the time, they come back.
A little-known treatment, Superficial Radiation Therapy, or SRT, has helped thousands of patients worldwide. SRT technology delivers precise, non-invasive, low-dose radiation to destroy the cells that form keloids. The treatment is:
Painless: no anesthesia, cutting or bleeding
Ninety-five percent successful (defined as no recurrence)
Cost-effective
This has changed thousands of patients’ lives – and best of all, it’s affordable.
