Guest guest Posted June 1, 2002 Report Share Posted June 1, 2002 You know, I used to be on the, " I must try everything and experiment phase. " But that's where I ran into problems. I was using cetaphil bar for years without a problem. Then after reading Dr. Nase's book and seeing his listing of cleansers, noting cetaphil bar wasn't on there, I figured I could do better using his recommendations -- especially the Tolerain Moisturizer and Cleansers. I didn't. Later in the book, he says that the Tolerain Company (La Roche Posay) gave him several cases of free products. I read Plewig and Kligman, who indicated sulfur products were comedogonic, which wasn't proven by repeated studies and the study they based themselves may have been a result of the comedogenic vehicle. Further comedogenic databases indicate that precipitated sulfur is NOT comedogenic. Upon changing the products to not use sulfur, I ended up worse... Later, I came to realize that Plewig and Kligman get royalties for licensing tretinoin. Interestingly, their 2000 book, indicates little information on Adapalene, which was released in 1996, giving several years of clinical experience. Sometimes, if it's not broke, do not fix it. The endless search for idea products has its drawbacks. If you have something that works, then use it. > > > > Hi everyone, > > > > > > > > I am getting ready to try the cea LTD Disks.
