This new forum is great. I always read the other one, and now I've followed you all here :)

I had a terrible flare up about 9 months ago so at that time I had to stop all topicals due to chemical intolerance (I couldn’t use MetroLotion or cosmetics as I had been). Anyway, I've had four treatments with the Aura/Lyra and it has helped my flushing, swelling and redness tremendously, BUT I still have chemical intolerance. My last treatment was May 20. Will I ever get rid of the sensitivities? Dr. Nase, is it time to try IPL? I don't know if I should try more Aura/Lyra treatments.

I'm still not putting anything on my skin because when I do it starts my flushing again and eye irritation. I have ocular rosacea, too. Do I need more time to heal?
