Partial removal of Keloid
What do you think of the partial removal of a keloid. It's where they scap the keloid down to the skin. but not removeing the whole keloid. i was told this was better than cutting the keloid off my chest. and pulling it together. then do radition and my steroid injection if needed . It seems to me that it would be very painful once the drugs wear off.
The only successful reduction/near removal of Keloid scars I have had is by sets of cortisone injections. I've had great results. Have a plastic surgeon, not a dermatologist, do them. My plastic surgeon told me to never scrape or cut them off -- they will only return worse than before.
Hope this helps.
