Hi,i have what is called pseudofolliculitis babrbae..What is the best and trusted dermatology site?


i've tried several treatment modalities from systemic antibiotics,topical steroids and topical antibiotics but with no noticeable effect..so any 1 can help please??

My preferred source is the Mayo Clinic. However, to give you a greater variety of top facilities, I attached a link I suggest you save. It has links to a wide variety of top sites including the Mayo Clinic.

I'm surprised that this condition is so persistent with you. Most are fairly easily resolved. You may know everything about this condition already but I'm enclosing a descriptive quote from the Mayo Clinic website:

"Pseudofolliculitis barbae. Self-care measures are the best treatments for this condition. Shaving with an electric razor, which doesn't cut as closely as a razor blade does, can help. If you do use a blade, massage your beard area with a warm, moist washcloth or facial sponge to lift the hairs so that they can be cut more easily. Use a shaving gel instead of cream, and shave in the direction of the hair growth. When you're finished, rinse thoroughly with warm water and apply a moisturizing after-shave. If these measures don't help, your doctor may prescribe the acne medication tretinoin (Retin-A)."
