Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The implanon can cause a skin allergy even if it is very rare.
I suggest to use an antihistamine such as Cetirizine daily.
I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application such as Beclomethasone cream.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
