could post the ingredients list to the board so we can see what it

contains.

Thanks,

He mentioned the, " green one. " Looked at their website, and noticed

it did have dimethicone in it. This could explain some sucess as we

all know dimethicone's usefullness. However, I'm worried that this

preparation of gold bond could be comedogenic. So, if you want

dimethicone, get the Sy product Zinc Oxide product.

We must suspect his story because no one uses X-Ray therapy for

rosacea. It was used for severe inflammatory rosacea and acne

decades ago. Now that we have Accutane, Accutane is used. If there

was anyone crazy enough to prescribe X-ray therapy, assuming you

could find a radiologist who would do it, you would have to try

several courses of Accutane first. The X-ray therapy led to a

significant reduction in sebum secretion, still not as much sebum

secretion as full dose Accutane, (max ~90% reduction in sebum

secretion rate after about 4 weeks). After X-ray therapy, years

later, patients would develop cancer and radiation dermatitis --

clearly a poor tradeoff for rosacea.

I really didn't post this to be ridiculed. Believe it if you want, I really

don't care. I found something that helped me, PERIOD. Maybe your just

jealous because you do all this research and still don't have an answer and

I just stumbled across mine. Actually I just wanted everyone to know that

these idiot doctors don't know what they are doing. It's pretty obvious by

looking at all of the posts.

I really didn't post this to be ridiculed. Believe it if you want, I really

don't care. I found something that helped me, PERIOD. Maybe your just

jealous because you do all this research and still don't have an answer and

I just stumbled across mine. Actually I just wanted everyone to know that

these idiot doctors don't know what they are doing. It's pretty obvious by

looking at all of the posts.

We know there are idiot doctors out there. Some of us are even

victims of them, such as yourself -- seeing as you have had, by your

own story, x-ray therapy and im cortisone. But, really, you have to

realize it, and not take any criticism of your post personally, that

we want to understand your post. You must believe that whether you

think so or not, your post has certain markers of being bogus due to

your history, and when questioned about your history in more detail,

you suspiciously dodge questions and become defensive. You must

realize that theories you post here will be scrutinized, whether you

think we are " jealous " or not; simply because for the good of

everyone it must be determined if your ideas could possibly work for

others. Your self reported sucess, while we are happy for you, is of

limited value if it only helps yourself. Now, don't you want to

stop, and help others in a more meaningful way?

And you still never answered the question if you tried Accutane

before doing x-ray therapy. Well, did you???

And just so we understand, post your complete regimen. How many

times a day do you wash your face and with what and how many times do

you apply the green bottle of gold bond lotion and do you use any

other products? What grade of rosacea did you start with and what is

your current level of clearing and how long did it take. Also how

many x-ray treatments have you had and when was your last im cortison

shot.

No I never tried Accutane before doing 2 x-ray therapy sessions. I really

don't recall when I had the cortisone shot(s). The last treatment I had

from the derm was probably about 18 months ago.

As for my regimen:

Morning:

I wash my hair with HeadnShoulders Shampoo. I use the shampoo on my face

also. I leave the shampoo the entire shower and rinsing is the last thing I

do.

I apply Gold Bond to cheeks, eyebrow area, chin (any area that was affected

by rosacea).

Afternoon:

Carry small conainer with gold bond in it (I used an old Carmex container).

Apply anytime I had flare-ups. I don't do this anymore because I no longer

have afternoon flare-ups.

Night:

I wash my face with Ivory bar soap and apply Gold Bond the same way I do in

the mornings.

Grades of cea I had:

I started out with mild red cheeks. It graduated to the area on my cheeks

close to my ears. This area would turn red and my skin became flaky. My

chin was also flaky. I had flaky skin on my eyebrows. My skin wasn't flaky

all the time. It was flaky and oily at the same time. Sometimes bumps

would appear on my chin and cheeks. My skin would get dark red and burn

sometimes. I did notice that what I would eat would sometimes compound the

burning.

I noticed an immediate affect after using gold bond. It's been a long time

but from what I remember, I totally cleared up after about 2 weeks. I

haven't had any major flare-ups since. I haven't had any sign of rosacea in

over 6 months.

Good Luck!

close to my ears. This area would turn red and my skin became flaky. My

chin was also flaky. I had flaky skin on my eyebrows. My skin wasn't flaky

all the time. It was flaky and oily at the same time. Sometimes bumps

would appear on my chin and cheeks. My skin would get dark red and burn

sometimes. I did notice that what I would eat would sometimes compound the

burning.

I noticed an immediate affect after using gold bond. It's been a long time

but from what I remember, I totally cleared up after about 2 weeks. I

haven't had any major flare-ups since. I haven't had any sign of rosacea in

over 6 months.

Good Luck!

No I never tried Accutane before doing 2 x-ray therapy sessions. I really

don't recall when I had the cortisone shot(s). The last treatment I had

from the derm was probably about 18 months ago.

As for my regimen:

Morning:

I wash my hair with HeadnShoulders Shampoo. I use the shampoo on my face

also. I leave the shampoo the entire shower and rinsing is the last thing I

do.

I apply Gold Bond to cheeks, eyebrow area, chin (any area that was affected

by rosacea).

Afternoon:

Carry small conainer with gold bond in it (I used an old Carmex container).

Apply anytime I had flare-ups. I don't do this anymore because I no longer

have afternoon flare-ups.

Night:

I wash my face with Ivory bar soap and apply Gold Bond the same way I do in

the mornings.

Grades of cea I had:

I started out with mild red cheeks. It graduated to the area on my cheeks

close to my ears. This area would turn red and my skin became flaky. My

chin was also flaky. I had flaky skin on my eyebrows. My skin wasn't flaky

all the time. It was flaky and oily at the same time. Sometimes bumps

would appear on my chin and cheeks. My skin would get dark red and burn

sometimes. I did notice that what I would eat would sometimes compound the

burning.

I noticed an immediate affect after using gold bond. It's been a long time

but from what I remember, I totally cleared up after about 2 weeks. I

haven't had any major flare-ups since. I haven't had any sign of rosacea in

over 6 months.

Good Luck!

Has anyone else tried this? Sounds good - I was going to try the gold bond

but this post concerned me - Head and Shoulders and Ivory - no way I can

tolerate either. I've finally found a beauty shop that doesn't try to treat

my " dandruff " with harsh stuff every time I get a haircut. I've tried

dandruff remedies in the past but it just makes everything worse.

I really don't have to use Ivory or HeadnShoulders. I sometimes don't use

either. As long as I use the Gold Bond and wash my face with any soap, I'm

fine. I only posted this because the guy wanted to know what I did from

moring till night.

I did receive an email back from someone (which I posted) that said they

started using Gold Bond and were having success.

I was diagnosed about 2 months ago. I think I have a mild case

except I have the veins showing around my nose and on my chin and my

pores in the effected areas are enlarged. I'm just beginning to get

veins on my cheeks. I am kind of pink but not really red unless it's

hot and I'm working outside. Sometimes my face feels like it is on

fire but it usually isn't any more red than normal when that happens.

I'm on Tetracycline twice a day, Zinc 25mg twice a day and Noritate

1% once a day. I don't really have flares except that I can tell the

computer makes me more conscious of my face feeling hot. I can't tell

that the treatments are helping. So I decided to try the Gold Bond

(green). The first time I put it on my face was feeling hot and was

about as pink as it gets (I had been reading the posts to this list).

It was amazing-- my face immediately cooled down and I watched the

pink go away! I continue to get the cooling effect. I can see why

he applies it more than once a day. I just started the Gold Bond this

week so I don't know wheter it is going to keep the pink under

control. I am worried about whether it will clog the pores, though.

So far so good.
