Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM

-I would advice that you use a good moisturizing cream over the patch twice daily.
-Use a non-soap based cleanser for face twice daily instead of using a soap.
-Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water daily which will keep the skin hydrated from within.

take care
regards
