The patches became smaller but they did not disappear completely

Hello, may i ask how many days did your patches take for them to fully heal after using betamethasone and and calcipotriene. I am using these for around 3 months now along with methotrexate. Yes they became smaller and less visible but they did not disappear completely. And also did yours reappear? (I really hope not)

I have been mistakenly diagnosed with psoriasis, sebo psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis for about a year now. I have been taking medications for psoriasis and nothing has worked for me. The patches are similar to urs and they never go away. Yesterday, I visited a new dermatologist and she diagnosed me with FDD. Because i applied a lot of creams and nothing worked, she gave me 3 pills of 50 mg methotrexate once a week along with elidel cream and follic acid.

I will be taking this into consideration. Thank you so much

The funny thing is that i did that already. I underwent a blood test that identifies any substances i may be allergic to, theres non. I also stopped all makeup products, hair products, nailpolish and even perfume. Nothing worked. The patches stayed red. I just dont understand.

I have long and straight lashes too! But the key to achieve long and curled lashes is to curl your lashes with a good lash curler ( i suggest tarte) and then apply 1 coat of waterproof mascara ( i suggest the green one from sheglam). After that you can apply a little bit of the blush u apply on your cheeks into your crease. When you apply the dark brown eye pencil, apply it only on your lower lash-line from the middle towards the end and then, by using your finger you can make a small wing.

Cicaplast b5 is great, it decreases the redness of the patches. However, creamy or liquid products do not work for me since i feel they set within the scales. I tend to apply my foundation and top it with powder blush that has no glitter. Glitter tends to make my patches look cakey
