Can you use prescribed 2.5% hydrocortisone cream for dryness on an area (nose) recently treated by Vbeam procedure?

Burns/irritation need a combination of
1) healing lasers and light such as aerolase or laser genesis and LED therapy with light stim
2) topical growth factors, stem cells, antioxidants
3) oxygen facials
4) platelet rich plasma and A cell topically
5) sun protection
6) vascular lasers for redness such as venus versa IPL, excel V KTP, and pulsed dye laser/VBeam
After 6-12 weeks you can treat for hyperpigmentation with cosmelan peels, hydroquinone, retinol or non ablative lasers like clear and brilliant or radiofrequency like venus viva.
Please see a laser, scarring and burn expert.

If you are treating dryness of the nose after a V beam procedure, it would be better to use a moisturizer instead of hydrocortisone.  Hydrocortisone is an anti-inflammatory medication and would not be the best treatment for dryness.  There are a variety of over the counter moisturizing lotions that you could use.  Another option would be Aquaphor ointment.

For dryness, try a moisturizer with ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid such as Cerave pm which can be purchased at any drugstore or a triple lipid moisturizer.  Hydrocortisone is a steroid type of anti-inflammatory which is meant to treat inflammation,  but not as a moisturizer.  Hope that helps!

I would only use the hydrocortisone cream if there is still some inflammation   If  there is only dryness you should apply a facial noncomedogenic moisturizer which is available over the counter at any drugstore.  I would also recommend sunscreen daily.  Hope this helps you.
