I used Memopi-HC cream about 8 months ago for 15 days on my face, but I accidentally applied it all over my face instead of just the affected area. A few days later, my skin became red around my nose, and its still red now. What should I do to help it heal or recover?
I recommend using a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream twice a day on the affected area to help soothe and hydrate the skin. In addition, you can apply a thin layer of a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream once a day to reduce inflammation and redness. Make sure to avoid using any harsh products on your face and protect your skin from sun exposure by using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. If the redness persists or worsens, it is best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
