Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, they say but we believe that beauty starts with who you are and how you perceive yourself. Everyone is different and has different needs. At LPS, we are committed to changing lives for the better, one patient at a time. Plastic surgery has gained popularity in recent years, and for several reasons. Statistics reveal that the number of both surgical and nonsurgical cosmetic procedures in the United States has almost tripled from 1997 to 2019, from around 1.6 million to over 4.6 million. In 2020, there was a 3% increase in reconstructive surgeries from 2019.
Before going for plastic surgery, the first step patients take is to search and choose a plastic surgeon that is trained and skilled enough to deliver your desired aesthetic goals. Another critical concern patients have is how safe plastic surgery is. Plastic surgery like every surgery has its risks. However, choosing a surgeon whose skillset is proven excellent and ethical by the professional body and experience and is committed to delivering quality care to their patients.
These concerns are understood by us at Lexington Plastic Surgery and we have a team of highly skilled professionals devoted to helping you achieve your aesthetic goals. We provide a full range of cosmetic procedures with one of our specializations being Keloid Removal. Among our board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeons and specialists is Dr. Michael Jones, a world-renowned celebrity cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon.
Keloids are a type of raised scars. Scars generally are believed to be the body’s way of telling you it’s healing, however, keloids seem to talk differently. They develop into smooth, hard growths often found on the earlobes, cheeks, shoulders, and chest. While they may be harmless, keloids have cosmetic disadvantages.
People living with keloids find them upsetting and embarrassing and look for various means to get rid of them. Unfortunately, removing them using standard surgical techniques does not provide a lasting solution. In other cases, they may grow back and form even larger growths. Some remedies have been said to improve the appearance of keloids but have failed to get rid of the scars completely.
Dr. Michael Jones is the founder and director of Lexington Plastic Surgeons. As a world-renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon, he is considered a leader in keloid surgeries with an over 90% success rate of preventing the recurrence of this skin disorder. As a ground-breaking feat, Dr. Michael Jones currently instructs numerous plastic surgeons including our doctors at LPS in the use of his techniques to remove keloid scars.
Additionally, he is the creator of Keloid Care, a new widely-accepted, fast-acting topical scar cream. Keloid Care specifically helps address the appearance of thick or stubborn scars like keloids and hypertrophic scars, and lighten any discoloration in the affected and surrounding area(s).
Thus, Dr. Michael Jones innovatively provides a double-barreled, lasting solution to keloid removal and its effects on a patient’s skin. Over the past months, our patients at LPS have provided positive feedback following their keloid removal procedures. At LPS, it is our utmost delight to meet the needs of our patients. This is echoed in the words of Dr. Michael Jones; “There’s nothing I enjoy more than getting to know my patients, working with each one of them to come up with a plan that suits their needs best.”
