A member asked:
I put stieva-a forte 0.1% on my public region as i had acne down there. it's now peeling and sensitive. what can i put on to make peeling go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time: The active ingredient in stieva-a forte causes peeling of the skin. Don't use it there or areas where the skin is sun damaged or especially sensitive. You can try using 1% Hydrocortisone cream to soothe the area you treated. Good luck.
