People of color tend to form keloids so the risk of forming them is always a question. Keloids are scars that are thick and large. These large scars are seen behind the earlobes of some people after they get their ears pierced. Fortunately, keloids are very rare in properly performed eyelid surgery. Even people who tend to have keloids usually don't develop them after eyelid surgery. Dr. Prasad uses very fine instruments, lasers and radiofrequency wave procedures to minimize the risk of keloids after surgery.
