Treatment options range from intralesional steroids to pressure therapy and silicone based treatment. Even lasers are sometimes employed.
Which option will suit you depends on your lesion. All these modalities are tailored to different lesions differently.

Hello dear. Treatment of keloid is not fashion or season based which changes from time to time. Intralesional steroids are the cornerstone of treatment.
