ABSTRACT
Keloid is a benign proliferative growth of dermal collagen which extends beyond the original wound. Although there are several available methods of treatment including intralesional corticosteroid injection, cryotherapy, surgical excision, laser therapy, pressure, radiotherapy, interferon-alpha injection and so on, no effective modality to prevent the recurrence of keloids may be present. We have done shaving excision of keloids on the earlobes of 4 patients and then recommended earring made to order for home compression over 4~5 months therapy with no recurrence for 1~3 years. It is suggested that compression therapy with earring following shaving excision may be proven to be not only a simple but effective method for prevention of recurrence after removal of keloid on the earlobe.
