2017-12-25 19:49:34
Hi, About one year ago I had developed pus filled scar which after removal of pus converted into keloid. I have already consulted with several doctors but did not find any solution. I really need to get rid of this scar as it is quite painful. I have heard aboit injections/shots. Do you provide such treatment? and doea this have any side effects?
