How To Cure Keloids?

I have been surfing the net to find treatments for keloids and most of the treatment include creams, surgery, radiation etc, and I was wondering if keloids can be treated as an autoimmune response with allergy type medications to curb the itchiness and medications like neprinol to control the scar tissue?

SRT SUPERFICIAL EXT BEAM RADIOTHERAPY IS THE MOST AFFECTIVE TREATMENT. THE REMEDIES U DESCRIBED HAVE MUCH LOWER EFFICACIES. THEY CAN BE OF ADJUNCT SUPPLEMENTAL VALUE BUT NOT THE TREAMENT ITSELF. THANX
