Hydroxym 2% Gel Experience?

A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭
Grand Rapids, MI

Can anyone tell me their experience using this? I was prescribed this today ( not exactly for hs but know it has been used for hs). Doc said to use it anywhere EXCEPT face and groin ( due to it thinning the skin). Which ive heard ( actually thats what terrifies me). Kinda looking for an overall personal experience and if u were given it for something other than hs if that makes sense. Since i know some people have multiple skin condition

It can help if you continuously use it exactly how prescribed, it stopped working for me after awhile
