HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, do not apply anything on the keloid formation because this wont here but may some time cause great harm, there is only option you have and that is surgical removal of tissue but this may not give permanent solution and tissue can regrow again, some time laser treatment could be the way, some people try steroid and best would be "Mometasone cream" can be tried on tentative basis, hope this information helps, take care.
