A keloid is scar tissue that kept building after the skin healed, rising above the original wound and sometimes continuing to grow. Injections are the standard first-line way to shrink them without surgery.
A small amount of cortisone solution is diluted and injected with a tiny needle directly into the scar. The injected site typically begins reducing in size within hours, and the visit itself takes just minutes.
Thicker or older keloids rarely settle in one visit. Most people return for a short series of treatments, and the Cortisone Club covers four visits a month for exactly this kind of plan.
Earlobes after piercings, shoulders, chest, jawline, and anywhere a healed wound overbuilt itself. Hypertrophic scars respond the same way.
