Peeling time after fourouracil
Doe anyone know about how long the face will peel after using Flourouracil?
I am using Vanicream a few times a day. I read somewhere not to “help” it peel…would love some insights on this! Thanks…
I am on my 3rd time using efudix over a 38 month period. Everyone is different,also each time I have used cream is slightly different depending on where I have been treating (cheeks, eyelids etc) PLEASE TAKE CARE NOT TO GET ONTO LIPS AS THEY WILL BLISTER HORRIBLY! I found the crusting and bleeding part takes around 2 weeks and then it begins healing but the skin will remain very tender and super sensitive. I use sunblock 50spf every day as soon as I dress even if I am in the house. Be kind to yourself and believe in the power of the cream.
this article will hopefully provide some insight into what you can expect in the healing phase My Efudex Photo Journey: Topical Chemotherapy | SkinCancer.net. -Julie (team member)
