Before receiving a steroid injection at IMED Centre, you will consult with a licensed practitioner to evaluate your condition, whether it’s joint-related discomfort or a cosmetic concern such as a raised scar. Your provider will review your medical history and skin characteristics to determine if steroid therapy is appropriate. You’ll also be guided on how to prepare for the procedure, including disclosing any allergies or prior reactions to medication.
Unlike topical treatments or surgery, steroid injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the scar, leading to faster and more visible improvements. They’re especially effective for raised or thickened scars and often involve less downtime than laser or surgical options.
Results can vary depending on your skin and the severity of the condition. Many patients see improvement within a few weeks, with effects that may last several months. Maintenance treatments may be needed for long-term results.
While generally safe, minor side effects like redness, swelling, or discomfort can occur temporarily. Rarely, skin thinning or slight pigment changes may develop at the injection site. All risks will be reviewed during your consultation to ensure safe treatment.
