It is certainly possible to develop a keloid at the site of a laproscopic wound. Keloids can occur at almost any site where there is an injury but there are some sites which are more keloid prone, and these include the chest, back, jawline and earlobe.
A keloid is due to abnormal and excessive wound repair at the site of injury. Some individuals may be more prone to developing keloids.
Keloids are generally harmless but they can be itchy or painful and can be cosmetically bothersome. Treatments like intralesional steroid injections can help to decrease the size and symptoms of a keloid.
