Sealing of Follicular Openings in Keloid with Cyanoacrylate Glue for Effective Intralesional Therapy

Intralesional therapy is a common treatment for keloid. However, because of some follicular openings and comedones on the surface of the keloid on the hairy chest and acne keloidalis, there is a risk of drug leakage, and sometimes ejection of drugs like a jet spray leads to therapy being ineffective. The authors describe a novel and effective method for preventing drug loss from follicular openings during intralesional therapy. To prevent drug loss during intralesional injection, cyanoacrylate glue is applied to the follicular and comedone openings on the keloid’s surface.
