Day 38 - Few weeks after stopping - post day 18

Everything is back to normal except the new skin areas are slightly pink, especially when I shave, or shower or if I exercise.
Lumps around my chin have all disappeared. It all feels smooth and keratose free so far.

Remember to keep using sun screen! I have the most daggy fishing/cricket dad hat that I keep in my backpack along with a tube of sun screen.


Here's me today at breakfast on a cloudy day.

Day 31 - Post Day 11

On waking up I look practically normal, then once I wash or start moving my face gets a little pink.
Nothing much seems to be changing now, just a pink glow every now and then and some flaking here and there.  Where there were pimples around my chin/beard area there are now flat lumps, which I think are starting to reduce.

Here's the last photo for a while.

Will check back in when something significant changes, but hopefully that's it!

Day 30 - Post day 10

Still flaky, still pink.

I think I'll wind up the posting in a few days until something changes. The suggested healing times are quoted from 1 to 2 months. I'm up to 10 days since applying the cream.

Day 29 - Post day 10

Still pink, still flaky. Still have some lumps on the chin I hope will flake off, which I think was either typical reaction in the beard area, or pimples brought on by too much paw paw cream for a week.

Estimates of healing time are 2 -4 weeks after finishing the cream, and 3 months for all the pink areas to fade away.

Here's me before any shave this morning at coffee time.

Day 28 - Post day 9

Just pink marking and some pimples on my chin, and a lot more flaking today.

Very pleased with the result so far. In the morning it looks quite normal, but after a wash and a shave it's still very pink.

Day 27 - Post day 8

Lots of peeling yesterday. Most of everything seems to have come off or is about to.

Looking nearly normal, except my festy chin, and a pink glow.

I'll skip shaving today to let it all calm down.

Day 26 - Post day 7

At last! A major improvement yesterday, suddenly a lot of the in flamed areas are reducing, there's a lot of flaking and I no longer feel hot and itchy. Now it's just minor uncomfortable.
I have developed a chin full of pimples where my chin folds, that's I guess too much paw paw. Didn't even apply anything going to bed last night. It is as if yesterday afternoon the fever broke.

Pictures soon as I work out how to pair my phone with my iPad which seems to not want to Bluetooth airdrop today.

Phew.
