Hello, I am a 31 female who had a loop recorder inserted in November of 2021. The incision did not stay closed and a raised scar formed within a few weeks. It has not changed shape, grown, or spread since it occurred and I have never had any issues with scarring before or since. It is quite raised, smooth, shiny and pink with red around the edges. It has gotten a lot paler towards the center than when it formed. It doesn’t cause me any discomfort or issues at all. I am concerned because I’m wanting to get my nose pierced and I fear keloid formation if this is what it happens to be. Does this sound like keloid scarring or hypertrophic scarring? I have no family history of keloids and have never had one myself and I have quite a few normal scars. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you in advance :)
