Finallly stumbled across something that is the holy grail as far as post-laser, cosmetic peels or microdermabrasion, Ipl's and procedure healing. The miracle emulsion is Biafine, usually prescribed for burn victims and diabetics with wounds that won't heal. You do have to get a prescription for it, but it is well worth the 20.00 per tube (ins. covered mine). After weeks of post-healing skin inflammation since my Fraxel, I convinced my derm to call in a RX for it. Google it and it is amazing what all it will do. Overnight now my skin is like new, the dead skin falling off with healed skin underneath. I just wish I could have found it sooner and avoided all the post-laser mess I have been through.  |

I use a similar product called Mimyx:
Nonsteroidal Dressing (MimyX) for the Treatment of Dermatoses
The FDA approved in July a nonsteroidal dressing (MimyX Cream, made by Stiefel Laboratories, Inc.) for the management and relief of burning and itching associated with atopic dermatitis, allergic-contact dermatitis, radiation dermatitis, and other physician-diagnosed dermatoses in adult and pediatric patients.
According to a company news release, the hydrogel formulation mimics components of the stratum corneum, thereby restoring barrier function without adversely affecting the immune system. It is also free of potentially allergenic emulsifiers, perfumes, and dyes.
Although the product was also approved for nonprescription use to treat general symptoms such as burning and itching associated with common types of skin irritation, it is currently available by prescription only.
The approval was based on data from safety and efficacy studies showing the dressing to be substantially equivalent to currently marketed products (Biafine radiation emulsion, made by Laboratoire Medix; and Sinclair wound and skin emulsion, made by Sinclair Pharmaceuticals, Ltd.). |
