Kenalog® injections are a targeted treatment used to help reduce the appearance of raised scars, including hypertrophic scars and keloids. At Aromas Medspa, we use Kenalog® injection therapy to soften, flatten, and improve the texture of scar tissue, helping achieve a smoother, more balanced appearance over time.
This treatment contains triamcinolone acetonide, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and slows excess collagen production in the scar. Kenalog® injections for scars are commonly used on areas where scars may feel firm, thick, or raised above the surrounding skin. As a type of scar steroid injection, this treatment may help improve scar texture and appearance over time. Our providers take a personalized approach, carefully evaluating your skin and scar type to determine the most appropriate treatment plan, prioritizing safety and a natural-looking improvement.
Kenalog® scar treatment appointments at Aromas Medspa are designed to be precise, efficient, and tailored to your specific concerns. Here’s what you can expect:
During your consultation, we examine the scar, review your medical history, and determine whether Kenalog® injections are appropriate for your condition. This helps ensure safe and effective treatment planning for concerns such as keloid treatment or raised scar management.
A small amount of Kenalog® is injected directly into the scar tissue using a fine needle. This scar-reduction injection is intended to gradually reduce the thickness and improve the texture of the scar without affecting the surrounding skin.
Mild redness, tenderness, or slight swelling may appear after the injection. These effects are typically temporary. Improvements develop gradually over time, and multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the size and severity of the scar.
Results develop gradually as the treated scar softens and flattens. Some individuals may notice early improvement, while more visible changes typically occur over several weeks, depending on the scar’s size and severity.
Kenalog® injections may be a suitable option for individuals looking to improve the appearance of raised scars. You may be a good candidate if:
You have hypertrophic scars or keloids.
Your scar appears raised, thick, or firm.
You experience discomfort, tightness, or itching in the scar area.
You are seeking non-surgical hypertrophic scar treatment options.
You are in generally good health and have realistic expectations.
This treatment may not be appropriate for all scar types, such as depressed or atrophic scars. During your consultation, we will assess your condition and recommend the safest and most effective approach for your specific needs.

Changes typically appear gradually over a few weeks as the scar softens and flattens. Depending on the size and type of scar, more than one session may be recommended to achieve the desired improvement.
Kenalog® injections are commonly used for certain types of raised scars when performed by a trained and qualified provider. As with any injectable procedure, possible risks and side effects will be reviewed with you during your consultation.
Most individuals report minimal to moderate discomfort from the injections. The procedure is quick, and steps can be taken to help improve comfort during the session if needed.
Treatment is intended to improve the look and feel of the scar by reducing thickness and firmness. Complete removal is not always possible, and results can vary based on the scar’s characteristics.
In some cases, Kenalog® injections may be used alongside other treatments to further enhance results. Your provider will determine the most appropriate approach based on your specific concerns.
