diluting aspirin in water nko?
I don't know about that. I've used this product before, but forgotten the name. But salicylic acid is the active agent in the product.. he should just ask around any big pharmacy shop.

Why not check in hospitals if they can treat it?

Bro, u have to be religious abt treating this. Buy a small towel u will be using for it. Then buy Neo Medrol. Shave completely and don't allow hair grow around the keliod region. Every day soak the towel inside hot water and use it to wipe the surface of the affected area, after that apply the Neo Medrol on the keliod. Pls use consistent atleast for a month. Do not combine other form of treatments within the period.

Sabadon:
Corticosteroid injections(like Triamcinolone) basically works, you could also use liquid nitrogen or any other form of cryotherapy. Surgical excision basically has almost a 100% chance of recurrence rate.

In summary visiting a dermatologist is your best bet, meanwhile, avoid clean shave cos i can tell you, you got this from a hair ingrowth as a result of clean shave

I think the Op should also note in addition to excisionof the keloid, the affected area can be treated with soft-x-rays. BOOM its cured forever.

Re: How Do I Get Rid Of My Keloids? by SeriouslySense(m): 9:48am On Sep 12, 2021
The one that you can easily do is wearing a silicon sheet, the aim I think is to increase pressure on it over an extended time, to reduce blood flow, with the added pressure to shrink it in.

I once had a keloid, but under my chin, handling a keloid by yourself is risky, I tried applying lines of pressure consistently, and it bleed it out, (i was lucky, there was no vein there, its necessary to know where veins are located).

After it bleed out, it began to dry, and then it hardened, it was at this time, I peeled it off.

Looking at yours though, there may be a vein close by, I am not sure, so more research is needed, for now, use something to apply pressure on it, over a long time, do this for 7 days and take a pic before and after and see the difference.

Visit a dermatologist. Kenalog injection should help!
Re: How Do I Get Rid Of My Keloids? by Autophys1: 9:52am On Sep 12, 2021
I have the type of skin that develops keloid easily.
The 1st one started in secondary school. I went to LUTH, I was told they will operate it. It was operated, and I immediately went to National Hospital Abuja for Radiotherapy to prevent a recurrence. The machine was only available at EKO hospital in Lagos and it was too expensive.
A few years later, it started growing again, I went to AB bumps somewhere in Ikeja (I'm not sure they are still in Ikeja, it's been more than 10 years). They used a machine that uses liquid nitrogen to kill the cells. It stopped growing and all I have is a scar at the site.

A few years later I had a surgical procedure, with a long suture line, and it developed keloids which was growing. I went to Dermatolgy dept in LASUTH. I did several tests and I was prescribed an injection that I was taking weekly. It shrunk the keloids and stopped the growth.

Scrap the surface, deep a clean rag into a hot water mixed with salt then use it to clean it, do this twice a day it would dry up in less than two weeks.

Re: How Do I Get Rid Of My Keloids? by SeriouslySense(m): 9:56am On Sep 12, 2021
It's risky though applying mini pressures in ridges, considering the complexity of the veins and lymph nodes.

The only thing you can do by yourself is applying pressure over an extended time on it.

Go to the hospital and ask for cryotherapy. It is the current management of keloids and its chance of recurrence is highly infinitesmal. May God grant us good health.
Re: How Do I Get Rid Of My Keloids? by Guzel: 10:06am On Sep 12, 2021
I use to have same problem. I visited one clinic in ph. They used laser treatment. I paid 35k per laser session of about 15 minutes plus the injection, drugs and cream which is around 70k per session. I had two sessions and boom it’s off.
Though it’s itches Once in a month, I just apply fucibet which I got for 12k.
Seek professional care from a dermatologist.

People remove scares, broils or tumors bigger than this, go and look for the right clinic or visit a Teaching Hospital if you ain't comfortable with it.

Once a month is not very effective. For now, take it every two weeks. After you've gotten about 3 shots of it, start taking it every 3 weeks.
I'd suggest you use silicon patches along with it. You can use it at night, but If you don't mind, you can use it the whole day.
However, side effects of kenalog is reduced immunity. But if you're healthy with no medical conditions, it shouldn't be a problem. You can use supplements like vitamin C, Omega-3, ginger and garlic to boost your immunity while on kenalog

Hey bro, Can I send you a dm regarding the laser treatment? I'd like to have a chat with you about it, considering its cost and effectiveness. Thank you.
