will gh help back scar's?

ive had bad keloid scaring on my back for abotu a year now. i went threw a max dose of acutane for about 9 months due to cystnic acne, and since have completed it. now the dermo tells me the only thing he can do to help me is give me cortozone injections.(about 40 shots in my back once a month). i just got back into training and have high hopes that a gh kit will vastly improve my horrible scaring. keep in mind ive had them for over a year. well, what u guys think....

I can only engage in conjecture with you. From what I understand after about 4 to 5 months the gh seems to improve the condition of the skin. People have reported sun spots fading and some scarring. gh is used in China and some other countries topically on burn victims. Perhaps combined with exfoiliation over time it may reduce the appearance of the scarring but I doubt it can reverse it.

Just my 2 cents...

Talk to a plastic surgeon. From my experience keloid only goes away by surgical removal.

I think you mean Collagen injections not Cortisone bro.

I have similar scarring and have used GH for some time--no such results. I have never heard of scars of that type improving through the use of GH. I would look for other solutions...chemical peels and Dermabrasion are two proven techniques. Any Dermatologist should be able to make several recommendations.
