Adaferin and Glyco-12 never go on the same skin on the same night.
Apply Adaferin only on fully dry skin, 10 min after washing. Pea-sized amount for the whole face.
SPF 50 every morning, even indoors. Without it the marks won't fade.
Benzac bleaches fabric. Rinse well and use an old towel.
No urea or thick lotion on the chest and sides.
Trim body hair with a guard instead of shaving.
Peeling or burning: drop back one ramp step for a week, use Centella + ceramide only on rest nights.
Photos on checkpoint days: same spot, same light, front + both sides + chest + arms.
See a dermatologist if bumps become painful or pus-filled, or the chest hasn't improved by wk 4.
