5-FU Injection VS. Kenalog for keloid scarring? (Photo)

kayaochoa
Hello! I have a pretty bad keloid scar from keloid removal above my belly button from an old belly piercing. What do you think about 5-FU injections for keloid treatment? Is 5-FU or Kenalog better for keloids? Is it the same end result?
