Hello
Keloids are collection of fibrous tissue.
Three modalities of treatment are available.
1. topical application of silicon gel
2. Application of liquid nitrogen.
3. Intra lesional injection of steroid.
I have seen best response with the third modality.
Please discuss with your dermatologist.
Thank you
