Hello,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to healthcare magic.
You seem to be suffering fro keloidal scars that is why the injections were given to your scar area. There are certain creams containing Etractum Cepae, Heparin Allantoin and hexilak silicone gels which can help a lot if applied continuously and regularly under medical advice. Other than that tretinoin can also be good option to modify the color and consistency of scar used under medical advice. The simple thing from your side can be done is applying a plane moisturizing cream regularly 3-4 times a day and massaging it thoroughly. It is seen to give good results in few months of time along with other therapies.
Hope this helps
With good health wishes,
