Best keloid treatment creams?

The only product that has shown to be effective in reducing the raised red type keloid scar is called Cica Care made by Smith and Nephew.





Cica-Care is a self-adhesive gel sheet that helps improve the appearance of the majority of red, dark or raised scars. It has already been widely used by the medical profession with over a million units sold.





Cica-Care is durable, comfortable and re-usable, ideal for day and night use. Cica-Care has been shown to be successful in improving older scars, however results are expected to be most effective in more recent scars.





Within 2-4 months, scars you thought were permanent can be reduced and their appearance improved.


Cica-Care is an advanced form of silicone contained within a gel sheet that provides a comfortable, convenient treatment for red, dark or raised scars. It has been widely used in hospitals by dermatologists and surgeons. The majority of red, raised and dark scars improve when Cica-Care is used.











Research into how Cica-Care works suggests that it may occlude the skin to hydrate the scar area. This means moisture is locked into the skin around the scar.


The effect of this is to make the scar tissue paler in color, closer to the natural color of your skin.

Reply:I don't think you can get rid of keloids.
Reply:My family develops keloids. We use vitamin E, inside and out. We take the pure vitamin E capsules with water, to swallow, and we pierce the capsule to put onto the keloid.


This is what burn centers do for burns.


What must not be considered, in my experience, is plastic surgery. Each surgery becomes more of a keloid scar for the person.
