waa. Yours is pretty big.
But I have seen worst.

I remember last time when I was in Form 1, one of my friend told me that she went to see a doctor and the doctor gave her some cream to apply right after the jap. So now her scar is almost invisible.

Mine however, is about 1cmx1.5cm. Not very reddish or protruding out so it doesn't really bothers me. I guess Vitamin E oil helps? I'm not sure. Sorry can't really help here. sad.gif

Yea. It's a good way to get rid of keloids as it's easy and quick. But if you google about th negative effects of steriod japs for keloids, you can see that quite a number of ppl actually had bad experience. And the worst part is that we were not told about it and there seems to be no cure for this at the moment.

My skin actually sunken in and I now have like a crater on my leg which is really ugly. sad.gif Doctor say only way is to put on weight so the fat will grow out. I've went to plastic surgeons but they say due to various reasons, they aren't able to do it for me as well. So now I just gotta live with it.
