A member asked:
Is 14 day carac cream treatment worth doing? i've been approved by my dr. who treated me for 2 small peeling ak areas. any treatment advice?

Fluorouracil: This is worth doing if you have quite a few skin changes due to the sun - actinic keratoses, hyperpigmentations etc. It is not an easy treatment and can cause some discomfort and temp cosmetic changes. The ultimate result however, is nice and the skin will be rid of any of above changes and is usually quite smooth! Do not do if you have any social events or work presentations etc upcoming!
