AKN Surgery

by Dyon Shields

Hello, My name is Dyon and I'm pretty sure I have a severe case of AKN. I understand that there are several types of surgeries to remove the affected skin, but my question is what is the cost of the surgery from least to greatest? I understand there are other ways to get rid of the problem, but they would take much longer. If I can get rid of it with a simple surgery I'd much rather do that unless the cost is just too much. Could yoh provide me with some typical costs for these procedures?

Hi Dyon,

I understand your concerns about Acne Keloidalis Nuchae and your desire for surgical correction. In order to provide information about pricing it is necessary to know the size, shape and location of the keloid lesions. The pricing is based upon the estimated time for the procedure, anesthesia requirements and post-op care needed. On occasion because of shape or size it can be necessary to remove the keloidal growth in stages to get the desired result. So, it is not possible to provide pricing information without knowing more details about your condition
