Ok guys this is a sensitive subject for most of us and I feel compeled to write about my 7 year experience with scars and with Kelloids.
Essentially they are rare in Caucasians but they do happen.
I have severe Hypertrophic scarring, now this is really terrible scarring, but not strictly classified as Kelloid.
Point is removing these completely seldome if ever happens. So deal with that emotional fact. Once you get over that, there are pro-active things you can do.
1. Surgery
2. Kelo-cote is good (silicone gel)
3. Cica care is also quite good (silicone sheets)
All these are expensive and long term commitments; no doubt about it.
