I seen a different dermatologist for my last steroid injections into my chest keloids. His procedure was a little different. It also took longer, but it was sooo worth it! He first injected anesthetic into the scars with a micro needle (felt like a quick pinch) and this helped to numb my scars. Then, he injected my scars with steroid shots and it was so much better than before. I barely felt anything. No pain, no pressure, all was well.
The only thing is once the anesthetic wears off, you start feeling all the pressure come back all at once. But in my opinion, the anesthetic way is the best way to go.
