Just wanted to share an update! The past week has shown me a lot of progress with my skin condition. I’m on two full weeks of supplements : fish oil, probiotics(100 billion cfu), Multi vitamin. and grapefruit seed extract tablets(500 mg- just added last few days). As far as treatments, I was doing zero products for a few weeks while my skin was super reactive. But now using Avene tolerance no rinse cream wash, and an azaleic acid at night. I put moisturizer on areas that don’t get PD but that’s it. https://www.amazon.com/Azelaic-Acid-10-Serum-1oz/dp/B07QM5KGDK I try to really limit sugar and cut out coffee as well. I think doing as many anti inflammatory things as possible internally and avoiding outside irritants really helps. I feel like my skin has a protective layer forming again for the first time in a year. Hope this can help you!

I know I have a lot of scaring and discoloration but I’m hoping the AA continues to help that improve.
I really think PD has to be treated from inside and out.
For metro yes. Same as you, .75%. But AA i started off with OTC The ordinary 10% and switched to another OTC one that is less drying. Found it in Amazon: Cos de Baha
I really like Cos de Baha It doesn’t sting my skin where’s TO’s felt like burning fire on my face 😥 I used Ecological Formula’s for a couple of tubes worth of time, then it started feeling really gritty & burny also.
