Keloid is an overactive condition of the skin tissue to early lesions characterised by proliferation of fibroblasts, excessive collagen production in the lesion. Treatment of keloids is a big challenge because of the poor response rate and high risk of recurrence after treatment. We found that bleomycin offers promise in the treatment of keloids.
