I have keloids on my arms and chest. What medicines or medical treatments should I use to treat them?

Asked by Female, 25 · 15 hours ago

Treating keloids is very common, and several effective options can help flatten and fade them. First-line treatments include corticosteroid injections (like triamcinolone) directly into the keloid to reduce its size and itching. Applying silicone gel sheets or topical silicone gels daily is a safe, non-invasive way to soften them over time. Other medical options include cryotherapy (freezing the tissue), laser therapy to reduce redness, or surgical removal. Because keloids can return after surgery, doctors often combine surgical removal with pressure therapy or corticosteroid injections. I highly recommend consulting a dermatologist to find the safest, most effective treatment plan for your skin.
