A member asked:
Hi. i got a nose piercing in november. i have recently developed a keloid. what do i use to remove it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You remove ???: Anyone who develop keloids should understand they can arise with any injury/cut to the skin surface. A cosmetic dermatologist might have a way to reduce your chance of recurrence at the same site, or it may persist whatever is done. If you try to do something yourself it is likely to worsen the outcome.
