How do you get rid of a keloid!?
Your first step should be to see a dermatologist to be sure it is a keloid...if you haven't already been officially diagnosed.





A keloid can't be totally removed but the appearance of it can be improved dramatically in most cases. There is nothing you can do yourself but there are options available to treat keloids. 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.
