P on the Scalp & in Folds of the Skin

I had a review with the Dermatologist on Wednesday. He was pleased with how things are going & is glad that the lotion I requested last time was working. I have to admit though it isn't working as fast as I would like but hey at least it is doing the right thing and making my skin better.

The derm wanted to up the LPC content to 30% again but I reminded him about what the Chemist had told me on how the ingredients separate once the LPC strength was too high. So he agreed to let me have the exact same 'formula' as last time. Thank goodness he is listening to me because I wasn't sure that he would. He seems like that REALLY old fashioned type that is more of a do as I say kind of person. I'm glad I was proven wrong. So now I am armed with a script of this potion with 2 repeats. I don't need to go back to see him until early July.

I have noticed that since going back to this style of potion the P in the folds of my skin is improving (you know those areas we don't talk about like near the groin, the spare tyre & armpits etc). I hated that it was so hard to get rid of there & this is helping even without having to use too much in the folds.

An added bonus is that my scalp is no longer as flaky. I know for certain now that it has nothing to do with the shampoo & conditioner I got from the hairdressers a few weeks back. It hardly made any difference to my scalp at all. In fact the only thing it truly did was make my hair super shiny (which I LOVE).
I don't use this potion on my scalp even though the derm said that I could if I wanted too. I hate the idea of using anything on my scalp as far as the lotions & potions are concerned. It makes my hair all oily & dull and my hair is the ONLY thing that I love to have looking really nice (I'm not a make-up person. I get too lazy to use it & I can never work out what type of foundation to use or what colour).
As I said I don't use in on my scalp yet the P on my scalp is improving. I was thinking that perhaps just using the stuff on the rest of my body was enough for it to improve in other areas. After all I do use a reasonable amount of the potion & it does get absorbed into the skin. Just a thought and as I said its improving. Always a good thing in my books!!
