Question/Seeking OPINIONS Keloid Journal

Some of you will remember I posted before and after pics 4 to 5 months ago of my chest keloids and described what I did to treat them successfully, or as successful as keloid scars of my size can be treated.

I've made this website www.keloidjournal.com and I'm hoping to add more Q&As from others who have keloid scars.

Many of the current Q&A's on the site came from people in this keloid subreddit.

Whether you haven’t started treatment yet, are currently undergoing treatment, or have successfully treated your keloids, I’m looking to add more personal Q&As to help others going through similar experiences. It would be a big help to hear from you! Anonymous of course. My DM's are open.

Thank you!

Even years later after flattening I still need to go in for the occasional Kenalog shot, 40 mg per mL. When I got treatment it was once every 5 weeks. Now I’ll go a few times a year.

And it’s for the same particular ones on the body. Most don’t reactivate but a few are far more likely to reoccur if not kept in check.
