Hi, I'me new here, and I've read a lot since yesterday. First of all it's great that you share all your experiences, it's very interesting and useful.
However, I'm not so sure if that treatment is going to work in the long run. I mean the Prevex and the saline solution. I got a laser treatment some time ago on my face and I used the same procedure you are using. It worked great for the regular skin, but I'm not so sure if it's going to work on the lips.
Why? well, because I got EC because a dermatologyst recommended cortisone. It worked great to stop the crusting, and the inflammatory reaction, but my lips were red during all the treatment. After I ended the treatment, the lips looked very normal, but the red color. Unfortunately, the crusting and everything came back again in less than 48hrs, and it was worse than before.
I've also tried Vaseline and Aquaphor, both didn't work. I've read that mineral oil is not good for a damaged mucous membrane. Vaseline and Aquaphor are based on mineral oil.
I'm just guessing, but I think the dermatologyst has given you a treatment for regular skin and not for damaged lips. It would be interesting to know, what would happen if you stop the treatment.
Do you know know much longer the treatment would last ?
