Best to leave the skin do the remodelling.Mimyx creme is good enough.Be reassured.
I got a sooner appointment with a different dermatology office. I have to say I was pretty dissapointed. She totally disregarded my concern about the skin thinning and atrophy. I showed her the spots where I was noticing thinning and atrophy and she said that I am just fair and naturally my skin is more transparent. She barely looked at my face up close and said that it looked like I had exema around my eye area and I needed something to clear it up. When I tried to get her to address the clearly atrophied skin, she gave me a card for a cosmetic surgeon. She quickly prescribed me Mimyx cream and told me I could go back to my regular skincare regime within a month after my sensitized skin felt better. I still have an appointment with the original dermatologist in two weeks. Do you think that I should pursue the thinness and atrophy with the next dermatologist or do you think that the Mimyx cream will clear up my worries?
Would you think that using a 100% cocoa butter stick to the depressed areas a helpful step to recovery? I don't get to see the dermatologist for another couple of weeks and I would like to get a head start on the healing process. I am also taking fish oil capsules to help with my skin health. Are these good steps? Any other suggestions?
I generally give emollients for application and let nature do the rest.Works out fine.
That is a relief. Do you have any suggestions on how I can speed up the recovery process? I really appreciate your feedback.
Does recover ,not permanent.
Thank you for your feedback. I haven't used anything other than cerave moistuizing lotion and cream. I am swearing off all steroid based creams forever. I am really worried that I have done permanent damage. Do you think that the atrophy is reversable?
You need to phase out to just emolients,atrophy could be a problem.If there are flareups only hydrocortisone for a few days.
