How to Stop the Irritation and Itching After Active FX?
Louise-MargaretJun 27, 2008
I'm on day 4, still very red & swollen. Feels like someone is going over my face with a barbwire rolling pin. I'm taking 800 mg of Advil every 8 hours but that's not stopping the irritation. I can't concentrate on anything to distract myself from it. Can't sleep either. I'm applying an Aloe Vera gel and Aquaphor 3 times a day but it burns a little. I very much wanted to have the Active FX procedure but now I am doubting I did the right thing.
