Guest guest Posted January 29, 2002 Report Share Posted January 29, 2002 I just wanted to share something that has been helping me: I had terrible dry skin a few weeks ago, and used Cortizone10 ointment on my face, and had tremendous results. It has cleared up any bumps that were present on my face, and my redness has nearly gone completely away. Even when I flush from stress or the like, my face doesn't seem as red and it doesn't last as long as usual. I've been applying it to my face every other night.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2002 Report Share Posted January 29, 2002 For anyone who is thinking of using Cotizone 10, the following quote is from the Cortizone website: " Do Cortizone products contain steroids? Cortizone products contain an ingredient that is considered to be a topical steroid. " It is my understanding that topical steroids are normally not good for long term use with respect to rosacea. Dr. Nase's book advises stongly against the use of topical steroids. Any comments? > I just wanted to share something that has been helping me: > I had terrible dry skin a few weeks ago, and used Cortizone10 ointment on my face, and had tremendous results.
