Almost a year - comparison pics.

Almost a year since I started my personal war on demodex mites.  Here are the before and after shots.

    What a difference! Congratulations on winning your battle with demodex! I'm in week 4 of my fight against them and it's a long road but I'm staying the course. Question: do your old triggers still cause you to flare up now that the demodex are under control?

      Thank you, ET! I had my 6th (and final) IPL session yesterday and was told that there is absolutely no sign of demodex on my face.
      Triggers (like exercise, red wine, spicy food, hot weather) are no longer giving me the flare ups (the ones which would keep my face red for over 30 minutes). If I do get a warm face, I splash some tap water and let it dry on my skin while fanning and it settles the temperature.
      I know it seems like a long road but now with dermatologists agreed that demodex is a cause, the journey won't be so lonely...and it will be shorter too.

      Hi,
      I've just done another update at 2 years. I only recenlty tried a sample of SooLantra so it wasn't the reason for my cure. I used over the counter scabies lotion/cream which was effective at a fraction of the price of SooLantra.
      Wishing you the very best.
