What Causes Itchy Burning Rashes On Eye Lids After A Microdermabrasion?
Question: Had microdermabrasion on Friday. Saturday I woke up to a scaly rash, itch and burn, on my eye lids and right under my eyes
Brief Answer:
Rest, precuations, and medicinal help are best
Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear
Welcome.
I am a Sr Dermatologist, Dr V XXXXXXX
I have noted your details and feel that this could be due to increased response of your skin and /or if some local application is causing allergy.
For anyone in your situation, the following would hold best potential for prompt relief:
1 Frequent sponging of face without any chemical containing agents while minimizing locally applied agents, even for cleaning.It takes some days to feel good results after the procedure normally.
2 Avoidance of sun exposure
3 Prescribed moisturizers, on the suggestion of the treating doctor
4 Tab Cetirizine 10 mg a day
5 Being observant about any medication prescribed to you for external application and to observe if using any such preparation leads to immediate burning stinging etc.
6 Hydrocortisone cream SOS basis, sparingly used
It would be adopt all measures above for best results.
Best wishes.
Let me know if there are further concerns.
