Q: i had chin lipo back in november and they removed a lot. the nerves are still waking up and im super itchy under my chin all the time. cortisone doesnt really work, what can i do??

: You should use Lidocaine 4% ointment or cream which is available OTC, probably better and safer than cortisone cream.

Usually a sign of healing. Try an oral antihistamine. Good Luck
