Curaderm Use on Excised Basal Cell Carcinoma
Can I start Curaderm if my small basal cell carcinoma was cut off and biopsied and skin has healed over before my positive diagnosis came through? Dr wants to excise larger area now, but I want to start Curaderm instead. Will Curaderm be effective if the topical nodule was removed and the skin healed over? Would I need to open the skin to start using or will Curaderm absorb through skin to destruct lower cancer cells?

Expired Curaderm for basal cell/actinic keratosis on face
My face seems to be exploding with problem areas. I'm 64, have had two prior MOS treatments on my face, with one requiring skin grafting. Decided that wasn't any fun at all and have now let other areas go a long time. I know, I know! I've already beat myself up pretty good about that! Recently I went to a doctor who used a topical treatment to essentially cut off the blood supply to the areas. It may or may not have been successful, but the smaller ones are smooth skin with not much pink/scar remaining while the two larger areas have pretty significant pink color. Anyway, there still remain other areas and I have some Curaderm left from a spot on my leg that I treated successfully years ago but it says expired 2017. Any thoughts on whether it would still be good? I have two tubes! Many thanks! I wish I knew why I didn't have success with ACV since so many seem to have! Anyway, Happy New Year to all of us! judith

How do I know when to stop treatment? My spot is not weezing or seeping at all anymore, but it still is really red. also, when I put the Curaderm on, it still burns.

My husband and I have used Curaderm BEC 5 for several basal cancers with great success.

I used Curaderm for basal cell carcinoma, rather than have it surgically removed. That was over a year ago, and I've had 2 check-ups since with dermatologist and am all clear.

Greetings Deirdre, I read your Curaderm review with great interest as I've always been told that Curaderm ONLY reacts to damaged/cancerous lesions and is benign to healthy skin cells. I'm curious because my face seems covered with irregular skin areas and I'm hesitant to put it on even a tiny area as I know it will activate the nearby areas. I'm glad your jawline finally cleared up! Perhaps, you have cured the whole area! Blessings, Judith
