I used 3% Hydrogen peroxide on a q-tip and dotted it on a round keloid formation on my left shoulder and then dipped it in baking soda and rubbed that on top to make a very light paste 2-3 times a day.
The first couple days it bubbled from the peroxide and it lightened significantly in an instant. Over the next number of days I could tell it was completely dried out and the top was a crispy white. It didn't bubble anymore either and it's almost completely flat. I'm starting to believe it was some sort of infection/fungus that was being fed by moisture. I've tried everything and even got rid of it several times completely using garlic and olive oil just for it to return again. I hope this works, thanks.

I tried the baking soda peroxide. How long did you leave it on each time? I bought some potassium carbonate, but there was some warning that came with it that said to seek medical attention if it comes in contact with your skin. Not sure if I should still use it with the peroxide. Any suggestions? Oh, one thing I noticed, the first time I used the baking soda peroxide mix, and left it on for 30 minutes, it bleached the really fine/invisible hairs on my face blonde. On brown skin, that looks a little weird. Just be prepared for that.Replied By Jeon (Dubai) on 09/15/2013
I tried baking soda with hydrogen peroxide paste. I massage it for a while and gauze it. But I noticed that some part looks like burned from it. is it really normal or should I continue using that method?
Which is much better or much effective- Applying ACV or baking soda with hydrogen peroxide?
Pls help Ted.Tnx

Do Not Use Hydrogen Peroxide on healing tissue!! It will break the new tissues down!! Also it has to be Food Grade Hydrogen peroxide, not store bought or Pharmacy bought, as these contain additives. You dilute the Food Grade using only DISTILLED WATER, do not use any other water, dilute it to 3 percent. You do this by putting one measure of Food Grade to Eleven equal amounts of Distilled Water, that will make 3 percent. Be careful to avoid new tissues, and I certain ally would not recommend putting it on scar tissue, 3 percent is ok for carefully cleaning a new wound out carefully avoiding any area's that are not damaged, I prefer to use Lugol's iodine for wounds. You can Purchase the Food Grade and Distilled Water, or buy a Distillation unit and make it yourself. Hope this help's you, Love Andrea C xxxxxx
