It re occurs after surgery and sometimes in a bigger way . So surgery is contraindicated in keloid .
Injection; cryotherapy are better options
Needs multiple settings and long term follow up . Avoid laser also .
Injections Followed by gel application is the best option.
Need more detail.
Consult me on practo pro for guidance and prescription .
