Freezing plus injections may beat freezing alone for stubborn keloid scars

NCT ID NCT07526168

First seen Apr 18, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests two treatments for keloids (raised scars that grow beyond the original wound). One group gets only a special freezing treatment inside the scar, and the other gets the same freezing plus injections of two medicines (5-fluorouracil and triamcinolone acetonide). The goal is to see which approach shrinks the scar better and improves symptoms like pain and itching. About 32 adults with keloids that have lasted at least a year will take part.
