7. Surgical treatment to remove scars. Surgery can remove scar hyperplasia and keloids on the abdomen, as well as scars around joints that impede movement. It is often used in conjunction with steroid injections and follow-up treatments with silicone patches. When used alone, it may lead to abnormal scar reconstruction.

8. Steroid injection. By controlling the abnormal proliferation of capillary endothelial cells of hemangioma and producing the transformation process of infantile neonatal blood vessels, the treatment of proliferative hemangioma can be achieved. Corticosteroid injections are the first-line treatment for hypertrophic scars and keloids. Intralesional injections every 4-6 weeks may be continued for several months or until scarring resolves. Pain during injection often affects patient compliance and may require local anesthesia.
