I thought all keloids are natural but tight clothing, body piercings, and tattoos can all potentially trigger keloid formation in some people. While treatment options can help reduce the size and appearance of keloids, complete removal is often challenging and may not be possible in all cases.

I am just learning about keloids today. It must be an extra challenge for people who are very conscious about their physical appearance and also when the keloids are on a specific parts of your body like the face, private parts, and so on. While some people may feel self-conscious about their keloids, I am happy to know that many like you are able to accept and embrace them without it impacting their self-esteem. There is a lot to learn here and thank you for sharing.
