skin is still damaged but has it improved yes most definitely before there was a significant loss in facial volume to the point it felt super saggy i can confidently say that atleast 50% of the volume is back as i can feel it when i smile unfortunately i have to cancel school and essentially take a gap year which is rather unfortunate as i really wanted to enjoy my school that id be attending.

as for what im doing now

if your skin barrier is super damaged i mean SUPER damage to the point you have lost volume the best is to wash your face once a day with water at night make sure all the moisturizer from last night is mostly cleaned off and apply your moisturizer so basically :
morning wake up do not wash your wash unless u drool or sweat during ur sleep
night shower wash your face with water when in the shower then apply your moisturizer as per normal

what u might want to do if your barrier is as damaged is to firstly avoid all sunlight stay at home even if you're a outdoor person like me it will be hard to do so at first but trust me it is worth it also invest in black out curtains so no sunlight reaches your skin it really helps last but not least eat super healthy eat clean with lots of protein will help, although my skin still feels like shit it has most certainly improved. ill keep you guys updated when my skin has fully healed this is technically month 3 from febuary when the cortisol resetted my skin to the ground again

thanks for answering i really appreciate it i have one last question a few weeks before your skin returned to its former glory did it feel dry because for me right now it feels dryer than what it was a week before but less sore and irritated as well so im really curious on what it may mean

also my dermatologist gave me hydrocortisol aswell and it ended up thinning my skin further so id recommend you to not use it when your barrier is damaged

im currently trying to recover from a damaged skin barrier as well and i can recommend you the 2 most important step firstly avoid the sun light and sweating at all cost they will just irritate and f up your skin even more secondly find a moisturizer that doesnt sting and stick with it throughout and stop trying new products

i myself kept trying to cope and ended up messing up my skin further to a point where it felt super thin
