What's the difference between keloid and hypertrophic scars?

The first answerer is a total idiot, they are completely differen't things, The difference between the keloid scar and the Hypertrophic scar is as following: A keloid, sometimes referred to as a keloid scar, is a tough heaped-up scar that rises quite abruptly above the rest of the skin. It usually has a smooth top and a pink or purple color. Keloids are irregularly shaped and tend to enlarge progressively.

Unlike scars, keloids do not subside over time. Keloids are raised and look shiny and dome-shaped, ranging in color from pink to red. Some keloids become quite large and unsightly.

Aside from causing potential cosmetic problems, these exuberant scars tend to be itchy, tender, or even painful to the touch. Hypertrophic scars tend to be redder and may subside by themselves (a process which can take one year or more). Treatment such as injections of cortisone (steroids) can speed this process.
