Hi,
Keloids are best treated by triamcinolone injections in proper dose and strength. I suggest you to meet a proper dermatologist who can judge the exact concentration of the triamcinolone injections to be given to your keloid area.

Do not try to go for any type of surgeries on keloids as it can cause further recurrence and complexity of the condition.
