California's Diverse Population Faces Higher Risk of Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars

Healthcare providers in CA are ramping up efforts to offer specialized treatments. These include laser therapy, corticosteroid injections, and silicone gels.

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, June 25, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- California, renowned for its cultural and ethnic diversity, is home to a large population of African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians. These groups are statistically more prone to keloids and hypertrophic scars, a significant dermatological concern that affects many Californians.

California's population³ stands at approximately 39 million people, with African Americans making up around 6.5%, Hispanics 39.4%, and Asians 15.5% of the demographic. These communities are known to have a higher incidence of keloid formation and hypertrophic scarring, conditions that can significantly impact quality of life.

Keloids and hypertrophic scars are types of raised scars that occur due to an overgrowth of granulation tissue at the site of a healed skin injury which is then replaced by collagen. These scars can be itchy, painful, and cause emotional distress due to their appearance. Research indicates that genetics play a key role in the development of these scars, with people of African, Hispanic and Asian descent being more susceptible.

Recent studies have highlighted the urgent need for targeted plastic surgery care and awareness in these communities. Dr. Sam Speron, a leading scar expert explains, "The higher prevalence of keloids and hypertrophic scars in African American, Hispanic, and Asian populations is concerning and we need more scar solutions to address this issue effectively.”

In response to this growing concern, healthcare providers across California are ramping up efforts to offer specialized treatments. These include laser therapy, corticosteroid injections, and silicone gel applications, which have shown promising results in managing and reducing the appearance of these troublesome scars.

Additionally, a highly recommended product for acne and scar management is Dr. Speron's Natural Scar Support Cream. Known for its advanced formulation that helps to reduce and prevent the formation of keloids and hypertrophic scars, Dr. Speron's Scar Support cream has been gaining popularity for its effectiveness.

Power ingredients like Oxygen, Silicone, Probiotics, Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides and Vitamins A through E promote collagen maturation, increasing scar strength and flexibility, while stimulating circulation to provide tender love and care.

These initiatives aim to reduce the physical and emotional burden of keloids and hypertrophic scars and improve overall skin health.
