An example of keloid scarring is a red, raised area of fibrous scar tissue that develops on the skin after any trauma or injury to the skin. Keloid scarring is a type of scarring that is brought on by an excessive amount of collagen being formed in the skin’s outer layer (dermis) during the process of connective tissue repair.
After any kind of skin injury, some people are more likely to develop keloid lesions.
