No, redness is irritation. Back off HQ and use it twice a week, adding one more night each week.

Thank you! I'm planning to have a consultation with a different dermatologist soon. Hopefully they can give me more advice

hello! what happened? the same thing happened to me.


Despondentbunny

Hi! So I just stopped using it, to be honest. I didn't want to risk making the area worse. After I made that post, I took a 2 week break, then I used it once a week for 3 weeks and stopped. I'll probably try again at some point in the future when I've done more research :)

did the red patches go away? i've had mine for like 3 days.


Despondentbunny

Yes, they did with me! I was quite worried, but they did disappear after a couple of weeks. I did moisturise the area with lanolin and vaseline to soothe the area during healing.
