How to cure keloids?

A dermatologist can inject them with cortisone to stop them from growing and dissolve the scar tissue. There is really no other cure than that other than surgical removal then applying pressure patches

Tea tree oil. It stinks like hell but regular application heals them over time...supposedly...I've never tried it but I have a lot of friends who have done it and cleared up theirs, and the guy that does my piercings says it will take care of them also.
