The results will guide us towards better management of keloids by choosing the more appropriate treatment. Adequate treatment will reduce significant emotional and physical distress in patients. We hypothesized that mean reduction in Vancouver Scar Score is higher in triamcinolone acetonide group compared to verapamil after three months of treatment.
