Innovative Customized Pressure Appliance as an Adjuvant in Presurgical Management of Bilateral Multiple Keloid: A...

Keloid is a benign, long-lasting fibroproliferative mass of dermal connective tissue that forms at the site of cutaneous injury as a result of an unregulated repair and healing process at specific anatomical locations, with a preference for the highly pigmented ethnic group. The use of clips or splints to apply pressure to the affected area is common treatment of keloids; nevertheless, controlling the volume and direction of the keloids might be challenging. The appliance's unique design allows for more precise control over the amount and direction of pressure applied to the scar tissue.
