Hi. Greetings. Kindly send in pictures on private follow up chat for confirmation of the diagnosis. The standard treatment of keloids includes intra lesional injections and silicone gel application/ silicone cream application. The lesions will slowly flatten but may not get cured completely with any treatment. Fractional laser therapy is another option. Kindly see a qualified dermatologist near you and discuss the same with him. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal.
