I started using Carac 0.5% Cream to treat actinic keratoses on my face and hands. The instructions said to expect some skin reactions, but I wasn't prepared for how intense it would get. My skin turned bright red and started peeling off in chunks. It was gross, but I stuck with it for the full treatment period. I'm curious if anyone else has gone through this and what your experience was like. Did you find it effective, and were the side effects worth it for you? I'm also interested in hearing if anyone had any serious side effects or complications. The package insert lists some scary stuff, so I'm hoping to get some real-world insights.
