After several treatments and surgeries, he had been left with a sense of hopelessness.This chapter explains the clinical principle behind keloid recurrence after surgery. A keloid is not a normal scar. It is scar tissue overgrowth. When the biology is not addressed, removal alone can become a cycle. That is why patients often describe it as a scar that keeps coming back after removal.This series focuses on a medically responsible approach and honest expectations, with a plan built around preventing keloid recurrence without hype or guarantees.What do you wish you knew before your first keloid procedure?
