Hi, I've been suffering with perioral dermatitis for about 6 months now. I am 19 years old and it was triggered by the use of a steroid cream. I was on doxycycline for a month and it was only getting worse. The metrogel didn't work either. I switched all of my products to SLS free (shampoo, toothpaste, body wash, detergent, etc). This rash is driving me crazy and making me really depressed. I just bought Violet Extract and I really hope that this will do the trick. How many times a day do you put it on the rash? If anyone else has successfully gotten rid of POD please let me know how I'm desperate! :(
