The keloid has to be examined first to check for its size and then the treatment can be started . Topical treatment for home care is of limited use. You can visit us at the clinic for proper assesment of the keloid so the treatment can be started .

Based on the size of keloid , there are few creams which can be used at home. But few injections are required for complete dissolving.
Kindly do online consultation for better diagnosis and treatment options.
