This is scar hypertrophy. Can be improved with steroid injections, silicone and pressure garments.

What was the cause of this scar? How old are they? Treatment will depend on the same. Intralesional excision with concomitant intralesional steroid injection and use of silicon gel sheet along with massage with scar reducing cream will be an ideal treatment plan. Kindly consult online to discuss in detail.

Hello dear. Keloids like this would respond well to steroid injections. Alternatively, you can apply Ointment TENOVATE twice daily for 4 weeks. Consult online for a detailed prescription
