Can you use this in conjunction with a prescribed steroid cream until it begins to take effect?

Hi Danielle,Yes, that is the best way to use MetaDerm when you have been using steroids. If you can give MetaDerm some time to start helping your skin, and then start tapering off of steroids, that is the best idea. Just please apply MetaDerm first so that it has a chance to work and is not 'blocked' by another product.Sincerely,Liz SuttonHaus Bioceuticals

It's organic, made from plant extracts so there's no reason why it should interact with a steroid cream. By the way. tapering off the steroid cream is smart. I've heard that if you stop cold turkey your symptoms can come back big time after a few days.

I don't find this very effective with scalp but their eczema lotion works for me. It makes the dry and red patches on my face bearable when I had flare ups from cortisol rebound and so far I have been off from cortisol for over 2 months and have my eczema under control. I recommend patience and get off from cortisol, it is not a long term solution.

No you cannot mix this product with a base cream or anything else. This should only be used by professionals. I am a doctor. This is a chemical that is used for skin treatments. It should never be left on the skin because it will cause hyperpigmentation. It needs to be neutralized. This is a very good product. Please use it with caution and follow the instructions. Sunscreen must be applied everyday. I hope this helps.

Yes you can. This is just a serum that can be used with any other creams you currently use on your face and neck.

I don't think so. This thing does work pretty good. I was kind of skeptical about spending the $ myself, but it is worth it if you're in pain. Depending on if the roids are internal or external, you freeze it different to get the correct results. I'd be asriad about gtting that sensitive area too cold!

I use both cream's together. If you check the website, it is used in conduction with another cream. I apply a 'dime size amount,' on the skin on my belly or under the top part of my arm for 3 week's and take the last week off. Similar, to our cycle. Hope this help's.

No harm, but little gain. It just won't work as well. Be sure to soak your feet frequently and for extended periods of time as often as you can in the next 4 to 6 day and that will increase efficacy.

Possibly. I didn't use it that way. The cream is water-based, so I don't know whether it would serve the purpose of say, an oil pre-shave when it comes into contact with shaving soap. You'd have a bit of a chemical stew, so I wouldn't venture a guess as to how your skin would respond. Oil-based preshaves are pretty simple. This cream isn't.

I haven't tried that but I dont see why not. I think if you dont make it too long you should be fine. This gel is pretty resistant.

Hi Julie,You should start seeing the results by 3 or 4 th week. Again it is gud to use this along with control on diet and exercise. For me this cream did wonders!

Yes, that would be a good use of it, although it doesn't stop the itching immediately. It seems to reduce itching by soothing the tissue and rehydrating. At first, depending on how compromised your tissue is, it may create a little more of a sensation, but that should wear off after a day or two. I even have that reaction to plain petroleum jelly. The directions seemed well-written and are worth reading and following.

I'm not certain as I've never tried this combo. Although the Recovery cream has some firming properties from my experience.

Yes you can, but you will notice the difference right away, I use it daily because I refuse to use Botox, it's the only cream I use that works.

yes, and i suggest you use up the other cup of cream left in the bottle in about 1 week :D

Yes I used Saram Wrap on top of the cream. Works good. The cream isn't doing anything though from what I've noticed. Nothing has changed for me.

No. And I don't think it works at all. I've been using it for about 6 months just as a cream not as a spot reducer.

Hi- probably not, there are products that are formulated for that- both over the counter and by prescription, I think one of those would work better for that.

I'm sure you can. I am menopausal. So I tried it and I like to use both. I did use Pro cream alone for quite awhile. I find most of my specific answers to questions by continuing to search through the product reviews. I use Pro and Estro a.m. and just Pro p.m. If skip Pro, I will flash and loose sleep. Both tubes last about two months. When it runs out I cut open tubes and get it all.
