If it’s not painful, it may be hypertrophic not keloid. Hypertrophic stays right along the incision like my C-section scar. Keloid branches out, is larger and usually painful and/or itchy. I also have a keloid on my shoulder that started from a smallpox vaccination (2” x 1/2”) red/raised) then I had scar revision surgery at 11 (bad idea and the plastic surgeon skipped the country when things went south). The scar came back 5” x 2” red and raised. Pain/itching. It took 30 years to flatten and lose color on its own. One small portion is still a little raised and red after 56 years.

It’s never too late to get the kenalog injections. I endured constant level 10 shooting and slicing pains for 2.5 years after my mastectomies until my dermatologist talked me into the injections. It took another 2.5 years getting about 15 injections at a time every few months but so worth it. I have about 22” of scars on my chest from the inverted T incisions. I was quite stunned by that since photos on the Internet are just two straight lines. Hmmm. Get a dermatologist who has had success with it. I had the painful injections in my shoulder scar as a kid and it didn’t help. My current dermatologist says it’s a skilled procedure so choose your doctor wisely.
