Calcipotriol for facial use.

Hi Sunnysilverdale, I have used calcipotriol in the past and had the same issue with burning but not for such a prolonged period of time. Usually for me it was a few seconds of pain and then it went. I'd speak to your doctor because I don't think that sounds right. Hope this helps.

Thanks for that bk93 your right, also looking on the internet it states calcipotriol should not be used on the face, though the Dr. said it is ok but I will speak and discuss with her. Many thanks anyway.

My son has suffered from severe psoriasis his whole adult life. We have tried several doctors, prescriptions, and OTC products. Nothing works for him except dermalmd products. When he has outbreaks these are the only products that have helped to keep the rashes, redness, flakes, and itching to a minimum. And with the consistent use, he now has varying times of no outbreak. His treatment is as follows: His hair is cut short (like that of a Marine). He shampoos every day with Dermalmd psoriasis serum (waiting at least a minute before rinsing). And while his hair is damp we apply (and leave on) the Dermarest Skin Treatment product (also found here on google).

I have psoriasis in my scalp and face too. It's really hard to control. I used everything and nothing really seems to work. I am considering Methotrexate at the moment, but too scared of the side effects! At the moment, I am using Elocon cream in my face. it works for a day or two but my psoriasis comes back quick!
