Many people use Elidel or Protopic following UVB NB treatment or on the days when they are not doing UVB Narrowband treatment. These choices should be made by you and your doctor. The important thing is "Do not apply any cream before or during UVB NB treatment as most creams change the skin's photosensitivity." Chris Hi Fabio.

I really don't know. I guess that this is a subject that needs to be discussed with your doctor/dermataolgist. I know that many folks use Elidel or Protopic following UVB Narrowband Treatment. One should not use any creams or ointments on the skin before or during UVB NB treatment as most chemicals of al kinds can change the skin's sensitivity to UV light and should be avoided. Hi Fabio.

I use fake tan(self tanner) once or twice a week as its to help hide the hypo marks.Can you tell me if i was to put Elidel on affected areas(making sure they are not wet and dry) would it still work ie penetrate the skin and do its job? Also how long do you have to keep the cream on when applied? Your response would be much appreciated Thanks Fabio Hi could you tell me if its ok to use Elidel on skin that has a fake tan.
