Severe scars from mole removal

I recently tried out a product called Mole Wart Vanish - http://www.wartmolevanish.com/

I was so excited that I used it on every single mole on my body which was over 30 of them.
After treatment, I'm left with massive, RAISED, dark red, keloid scars that are 2-3 times the size of the original mole.

I've been using Dermatix Ultra for over 3 months and I can't say I've seen any improvements at all.
Now my whole body is covered with horrible looking raised scars.

Is there anything I can do now at this stage or do I have to live with it?




Thank you in advance!

I went to see a Dermatologist today.

He said he wouldn't use any laser surgery on it because there's a risk that the scars will get even worse.

So he just prescribed me to some skin lightening cream and Scar gel, and told me to use them for the next 3-6 months and see if there's any improvements.
I'm going to try ScarPrin gel since it's apparently rated as the best scar formula in the market.

Hello,
Keloid is a heaped-up scar that rises quite abruptly above the rest of the skin and become red, purple and irritated.
You should have this examined from a dermatologist and discuss the treatment plans with him.
The treatment methods for keloids are:
1) corticosteroid injections inside the keloids
2) Pulse dye laser
3) silicone sheets
4) cryotherapy
5) injection of interferon
6) surgery
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
