BTW, for some reason the doctor emailed me stating not to use hydrocortisone as it may irritate the skin?? I didn't know the hydrocortisone could do that....??

The CO2 laser was done overseas and I sent pictures to to the doctor, she said it is an Erythema and to simply treat it with a cream for redness and/or a cream that has A and D vitamins. Let me repeat that the skin peeled off and it was pink but looking good, the sort of rash development came after I was exposed to low temps outside and I cannot remember if I had sun block (10 days ago). I feel this is like a mild sun burn but wanted to consult you experts here. Before and after the CO2 I was taking anti-viral pills for a few days as a precaution; so can I assume there's no infection? I had the normal inflammation in the chicks and it came down progressively nice. Procedure done on Jan. 29, low temp exposure cleaning snow was around Feb. 8.

before and after pics?

Today is Dec. 7, around 4 months and a half after surgery on July 16. Lumps have decreased slowly and are still visible a little bit, my doctor told me to give time to the time as this will go away and get better with time. I still see redness around this are, some days they look better than other days. Such a long recovery

Sept. 9, getting close to 2 months after surgery and the cyst is still there.... I am starting to get worried now....:-(
