I used Zyclara as directed for 2 weeks, the last 4 or 5 days on my cheeks. It peeled as I expected but left some scaring on 1 cheek, and both cheeks turned bright red. The redness did not go away in the following 2 weeks so my Dr told me to stop the 2nd treatment that was to begin Nov 28, 2019. Now 2 months lated the cheeks are just as red after Oracea 40mg and 2 different Rx creams with zero results. What now? Am I stuck with red cheeks forever? ## I also used Zyclara on my face as directed for 2 weeks on, then 2 weeks off. Had a few scabby red marks, but those faded before I began the second round of cream on June 14. Overnight, my face was full of red spots, much more reaction than the first time, which is "unusual" according to my doctor. I stopped on the 19th as I developed...

Can Zyclara face cream be used for 8 hours during the day instead of using it overnight? Trying to sleep with it on my face kept me nervously awake, and cream spread to my hands and arms wherever I unwittingly touched my face at night. ## Have you consulted your doctor? Usually the reason they have you do it at night, is because they figure you won't be touching your facing so much, so more of it will be absorbed. How much of it are you applying?
