I was reading someone saying that they tied a string around their earlobe keloid to cut off the circulation and the keloid dried up. I was wondering, does it really work?

So.. when I was a teen I had a physical breakdown and I did something I regret a lot today - I cut myself. Now I've got around 20 different size scars on my arm, and I always cover it as I don't want people to look at it, ask questions etc. As you can see on the picture scars aren't that deep as skin was cut with sharp razor. The biggest one is about 8mm wide and 5cm long. I was wondering...

My neck scar is 4" long and it pooches out all the way across. This is a fairly new incision but everyone else's is just a flat line even in the beginning. What are my options for flattening it and making it blend in with the rest of my skin? Which procedure would best address this scar?

The scab came off 2 and a half...

IIt's June 26 2014 12:24 am.  I've lived with large keliods since I was in elementary school.  My mother hated it and took me to doctor after doctor.  Injections and biopsies were so painful and the keliods just kept growing.  Its wasn't until I was 17 that I learned what they really were.  I've been using tea tree oil and its been helpful with my smaller keliods but...

I have two keloids on my pubic area that I've had. removed surgically 3 or 4 times, I literally can't even remember. The last time i had them removed was almost two years ago.

I have some pink skin discoloration after removal of actinic keratoses spots 4 weeks ago. The spots are gradually fading but still prevalent. In a follow up appointment yesterday the doctor told me they need to stay dry in order to fade. He recommended not to use any moisturizer on them, only my tretinoin rx and vit c serum. I have been using moisturizer on them up till now. Keeping them dry...

I have two small keloids on both of my ears from piercings I got about 3 months ago. So I was wondering, how much will it cost to get both removed?
