Correction of keloid scar from a previous lipoma surgery
Correcting keloid scars can be quite difficult. Although the surgery is straightforward to remove them, you have a very high probability of the keloid scar returning. Your best bet, is to be evaluated by a board-certified plastic surgeon with a great deal of experience in keloid surgery. They may recommend steroid injections before the surgery or may recommend the excision of the keloid and then immediate treatment with radiation.
