Any cure for keloids?


i have keloids at the back and in my chest... it might be because of the pimples... i didnt have this before.. and now, i can wear off-shoulders because of the keloid.. the size is small but its many... how can i cure this?

A keloid can't be totally removed but the appearance of it can be improved dramatically in most cases. You could try mederma since you say this is small. Mederma can be purchased at any drug store; however, usually a dermatologist is needed. Treatments include:
cortisone injections
laser treatment
cryosurgery
surgery followed with radiation

Most of the time, doctors will not do "regular" surgery just to remove the keloid; special specific surgery is required. The reason why is that the chances are good the keloid would just return. Keloids are extremely hard to treat. Please see a dermatologist to see what options are best for your skin type
