Piercing keloid on the hilex.
I got a piercing (Industrial piercing) but my skin condition is such that it turned out to be hyper tropic scarring and the piercing left tissue scare which grew into a big keloid. I need to clear keloids of my piercing. What would be the best way to get it recovered? I've been with this issue since 2 years.

Next Steps
Don’t try home remedies or oils—they usually don’t help and may irritate it
