How do you get rid of hypertrophic scars from piercings?

I have an industrial piercing. It has these ugly bumps at the holes. At first I thought these were keloids, but since they don%26#039;t leave the area of the piercing, I found it was actually something called a hypertrophic scar. Does any have any tried and true methods as to how they got rid of their cartilage bumps/scars?|||Sea salt soaks and hot compresses a couple times a day, and try not to sleep on your piercing.
