Sad about the progress , 1 year post op

1 year ago i had keloid removal, since then ive been using Eclar plaster, well now i havent used it in 2 weeks because i ran out of it, so the color is red again… but as you can see i still have 3 bumps (perhaps keloid) on the scar, which next week my surgeon treat it with steroid injections… i am not happy about this visual but this is it 🥲

What else could i do? I’m upset!

I had huge and i mean it , keloid on my abdomen due to pancreas surgery. I had enough of my scar and last february i went to a plastic surgeon and asked him to remove it surgically, so he did, then after i did 3 days radiotherapy then i waited for him to remove the sutures and i started to wear Eclar plaster every single day and pressure therapy for 6 months, i was very very happy about the result but even back then i noticed this 2 knotty, hard spot but i thought its gonna go away, but it does not… as u can see a knotty spot on the top and other one above my belly button. I did everything, massage, pressure, eclar and it doesnt change. I am thinking of getting steroid shots what do h think?

Is it a keloid or?

I had a huge vertical keloid scar on my abdomen due to pancreas surgery. 1 year ago i decided to remove it surgically, then i got radiation 3 times and since sutures were removed ive been applying eclar plaster 24/7. I am not satisfied i am very dissapointed. Does this look keloid to you?😭
