I have spent a childhood growing up on the beach and with fair skin, the combination results in sun damage now.
After having several BCC's excised over the last 10 years or so, it was time to try and eliminate any future slicing.
And so it begins...
The only reason I have decided to go ahead with this is because my skin specialist does not advocate doing the whole face at once. Her description of "pizza face" is not encouraging.
Before.
Efudix is a white cream that is to be applied as a thin layer. The first application did not sting or cause any initial discomfort.
I guess time will tell...
I have noticed as the day has progressed that it feels like sunscreen. It leaves a film on the skin.
It has made me re evaluate when I will apply the evening dose. Instead of waiting until closer to bed time, I will put it on again after dinner. That way my evening shower shouldn t effect it. I am also conscious of the instructions which say not to apply at bedtime as it might smear it around other areas of the face.
After 9 hours...
Well, after 9 hours I can only report a tingling sensation on my forehead. I have now applied the second daily coating.
I am sure there is more to come. Stay tuned...
