This trauma and injury can be in the form of a surgical incision or from something as minimal as a pimple. Keloids can occur in anyone but are observed more frequently in individuals of African, Hispanic and Asian descent. Keloids represent a significant clinical problem, especially in black populations where the incidence of keloids has been estimated at 4-16%. Keloids are not only a cosmetic concern; 80 percent of patients experience itching, pain and tenderness. Keloids are most commonly located on the chest, shoulders, back, and earlobes. The diagnosis of keloids is fairly straight forward and is usually made based on physical exam findings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/home.hamptonu.edu\/skin\/keloids\">Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"cl\">\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/huscri.hamptonu.edu\/media\/img\/small\/20130730_110842739_illustration-keloids.jpg\" alt=\"Keloids\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"info\">\n<h2>What is Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA)?<\/h2>\n<p>Hair loss is a common complaint for African American women.
