NEW RX FOR KELOIDS

Keloids have been and continue to be one of the most vexing problems we face as plastic surgeons.

Now a potential new Rx is on the horizon and it is called Celotres.

The study involved excision of the keloid followed by an injection of Celotres into the epidermal/dermal junction. The recurrence rate was 19% versus the predicted rate of recurrence of over 50%.

I'll post again as we learn more.
