How to Take Care of a Keloid?
Specialist says, “If you have a bumpy scar that doesn’t go away, it’s a keloid.” It means you should see a dermatologist who will tell you how to take care of the keloid based on its size and location.
Doctors say that a large keloid might need to be cut out with surgery. But keloids that are surgically removed almost always come back, so an array of complementary therapies can be used in conjunction with this therapy., such as injections of steroids or a specific dressing that applies pressure to the scar.
Similarly, your dermatologist may prescribe a pressure earring if the keloid is on an earlobe piercing. For instance, if you have a small keloid, your doctor might suggest that you put a silicone gel on it.
