Keloid After Trichophytic Closure

i did a hair transplant surgery,and my surgeon said he used trychophytic closure, but the scar is about 4months old now and its turning into keloid strip. please i want to know if i successfull use the silicone get to heal the keloid, will hair grow out from the scar ever again ?

Keloid formation has nothing to do with a good surgeon or a trichophytic closure. Certain people are just more prone to getting keloids no matter what. It is a genetic predisposition. You can try using the over the counter ointments to diminish keloids, but I do not think it will work well on the scalp because of the hair that is in the way. Sometimes doctors inject steroids to “flatten” out the keloid and this is particularly valuable if the keloid is detected early.

Most people really do not have keloids when they report them, but rather hypertrophic scars (which are usually elevated scars). True keloids look like grapes growing from the wound.
