Intralesional Therapy
Targeted injection therapy for keloids, cystic acne, alopecia areata, and other localized skin conditions.
About This Treatment
Intralesional therapy involves the direct injection of medication — such as corticosteroids, 5-fluorouracil, or other agents — into a specific skin lesion. This targeted approach delivers high concentrations of medication exactly where it is needed, making it highly effective for keloids, hypertrophic scars, cystic acne nodules, alopecia areata patches, and certain inflammatory conditions. Dr. Amita uses precise injection technique to maximize efficacy and minimize side effects.
