Hey all
Ive sadly always been a sufferer of face (cheeks) and neck flushing for most of my adult life. Triggers can be random and not always consistent but can be stress alcohol tiredness and social anxiety
I noticed a couple of months back it was getting more frequent so I contacted my doctor who put me on finacia 15% twice a day for a month
First week was fine, second week I suffered bad redness on my neck and third week my face was really red and flushing got worse so I stopped
Since then my flushing is way worse than before and happening nearly every day and has now spread to areas it didn't previously such as my lower cheek on one side weirdly. it's also much more intense and a deeper red. There's also now a baseline redness that didn't exist before and its absolutely getting me down
Im trying what I can to soothe it and currently my skincare is Cerave moisturising foaming cleaner, cerave moisturising cream, cicaplast baume b5 and cetraben emollient cream...... nothing is helping though and its been about two weeks since I stopped AA
Im really not sure what to do or where to turn now but any advice or support would be helpful because I just don't know what to do
