Question

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Doing surgery on yourself for a keloid is not the best idea. I would consider applying Plato's Scar Serum and then having a surgeon advise on the risks of cutting the keloid out. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Keloids can regrow very easily. Once it is removed topical steroids creams should be sued to minimize the chances of recurrence.
