ABSTRACT
Keloids are benign cutaneous lesions that result from excessive collagen synthesis and deposition. Earlobe keloids are commonly seen as a complication of earlobe piercing and infection. Many different treatment modalities are available; however, therapeutic results are often unsatisfactory. Cryosurgery either used as monotherapy or in combination has been used successfully. However, keloids may require multiple sessions to achieve significant improvement and have a high rate of recurrence. Compared to conventional cryosurgery, intralesional cryosurgery has advantages of proper freezing of the deep layer of the lesion and a less harmful effect on the superficial layers. Herein, we present three cases of earlobe keloid effectively treated with intralesional cryosurgery.
