How do u get rid of keloids?
this is a specialty of a plastic surgeon. Call for an appointment and be sure he or she is board certified in cosmetic surgery.
Reply:A course of corticosteriod injections into the base of the keliod may flatten it. Otherwise it may be excised by surgery or laser, followed by corticosteroid injections into the wound.

Reply:Keloids are an overgrowth of the connective
tissue involving the wound area, as well as the
normal peripheral skin outside the wound area (they
are larger than the initial wound boundary). They are
grossly elevated and may be itchy, hard, and hypersensitive.
They can develop for up to a year after injury and
persist indefinitely. There tends to be a genetic predisposition
for keloid development. The treatment of
keloids is difficult and frequently unsatisfactory.
Reply:if money is not a problem, go to a dermatologist. i think that is the only way. its a laser procedure by sessions. it will depend on how big our scar tissue is.
but if money is an issue then a good concealer that matches your skin tone will be ok.
