Hi Walter,

My last order of ZZ cream came and it was much creamier/more moist than my previous jars. I can see how some would like this however, I'm now going through one jar about every 3-4 weeks when it had lasted twice as long before. Has the ZZ cream formula changed?

Thank you,
Trudy

Thanks for answering, Walter. I'm on month 5 1/2. I still have the vermin but plan to continue using the ZZ cream. Do you have any other suggestions to move this thing along? I wash my pillow case in borax 1x/week. I don't know if I should be doing it more or doing other things. Any suggestions? Tha...

Hi Walter, I've been using ZZ cream for just over four months. I have the Brevis mite. I am still seeing them under the microscope. What is the longest amount of time you've heard it take to get rid of the mites? And what's the longest you've heard it taking to see improvements in the skin? I've use...

Hey McWick, You really have tried almost everything or so it seems. I went to a top Dr. here in Wash DC who has been on TV and whatnot and while he was very, very nice, even he can't help my chin. I asked for both Ivermectin pills and permethrin lotion and he gave it to me, but he told me it wouldn'...

After you wet your fingers, you just swipe on top of the ZZ, not through it. It'll be a thin film but it'll be enough. These creams are supposed to help with seborrheic dermatitis. I have a little on my eyebrows. I have the typical Subtype 2 rosacea but what is on my chin isn't in the "normal&q...

Hi McWick, I don't have pictures that I can find. I can't take one now because I did a peel a couple days ago so I am red and peeling and it wouldn't be an accurate representation. I found a picture that is fairly close to my skin but mine is definitely worse AND I've had it for a few years so my sk...

Hi McWick, I didn't look at your picture because, honestly, you have to download it to look at it and I didn't want to take the chance of a virus! Do you have another way where we wouldn't have to download it to see it? If you are on the brink of a breakdown due to your skin problems, then what do y...

That is awesome, Aira!! Thanks for taking the time to post the pictures too. I'm very happy for you. You give us all hope! You wouldn't think people would treat you the way they did, but I'm glad things have changed in that arena too. I hope my results will be just as good. I'm almost on week three....

Hi Walter, I was asking if the zz cream can help skin conditions NOT caused by the mite. I was asking because I don't find very many mites on my chin so was hoping that just in case my dermatitis isn't caused by the mite, it could possibly help anyway. You sort of answered this in that you said the ...

Thanks for the response, Walter. I have more questions and one I'm not sure if you can answer, but I'll take any guess you can give me! From my tests at home with my microscope, I believe I have only the D. brevis mite. I find them quite heavily in the area between my eyebrows, sort of a lot on my n...

I started using the zz cream 5 days ago 2x/day after having rosacea/perioral dermatitis (idiopathic--not sterioid-induced) for probably five years (and have literally tried everything else). I have redness on my chin and terrible broken blood vessels on my nose. I also have melasma and hyperpigmenta...
