I would start with application of Plato's Scar Serum and Plato's Dark Scar Corrector, followed by subcision, fillers, and PRP to help your scar. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

This requires an in-person evaluation. This may be improved with a revision, lasers, and microneedling/prp. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

I would use a combination of Plato's Scar Serum and Plato's Dark Scar Corrector. Avoid lasers at this point to prevent burning your scar further. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Keloids need a combination approach for improvement with lasers, microneedling/prp and 5/FU steroids. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Keloid scars need a combination approach for improvement. I recommend lasers, microneedling/prp, 5/FU steroids and/or surgery with or without radiation. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer
