For scars that are not suitable for surgical treatment, softening and flattening the keloid by injecting medication into the keloid is one of the common methods of treatment for keloid scars. For larger scars, it is also possible to partially excise the scar first and then give medication to close it afterwards. This reduces the amount of medication used for injection and shortens the treatment period. The drugs used are usually Depo-Provera, Trenbolone, 5F-U, etc.
Scar injections may seem simple, but the ability to group and administer the medication, the right amount of medication, and the ability to inject a sufficient amount of medication evenly into the bumps all affect the effectiveness of the treatment, the most important of which is the ability of the operating physician to inject a sufficient amount of medication evenly into the bumps. Don’t underestimate the bumps, some of them are so hard that it is not easy to get the medication evenly into the core of such bumps to obtain the best results.
This depends on the doctor’s level of practice, the injection tool used, and other factors. The continuous improvement of the injectable drug formulas to achieve personalized combined drug administration improves the therapeutic effect of the drugs while minimizing the damage to the body from the toxic side effects of the drugs. Prof. Wang Lianzhao and his scar treatment team have also noticed another problem. In practice, they often encountered patients who gave up treatment because they were afraid of the pain during injection.
This problem no longer exists, and through technical improvements, the comfort of the treatment has been greatly improved, and the “roadblock” that prevented patients from repeating the treatment has been removed. In addition, while the emphasis is on improving the healing rate of keloids, Professor Wang and his scar treatment team also place special emphasis on improving the appearance of the keloid. Therefore, after the keloid has been stabilized by injectable closure treatment, topical medications, Plasma and dye laser treatments are used to consolidate the healing effect and improve the appearance.
