Anyone else dealing with Demodex Mites? What helps?

Am I seeing "collars" here? And as for the realness of "die off," I have has two separate tiny itchy red bumps (a bit like a keratosis pilaris that can form around a hair follicle) show up. Pretty sure die off is what it is bc I *never* have bumps on my face. My skin is typically clear of any pimples whatsoever, save a bit of occasional perioral dermatitis that doesn't exhibit the same way.

Yes, that could be collarettes, as could the spot a bit to the right of it. What is the magnification?

I was just reading an older post from when this group began and someone posted that Natural Genesis products were good. Has anyone tried them??

I'm in France until next week and have been buying up all the Hylo-Lipid I can find. It's OTC here and costs under 11 Euros and is EXACTLY the same as Meibo, which is $350+. But not all pharmacies have it. I've only bought 10 so far. It's for Meibonian Glands Dysfunction, which I have. The Xdemvy treatment has cured my dry eyes for now, but the glands are still an issue. The D. Brevis are still there, or their dead bodies from Xdemvy are clogging up the glands. Not sure which. The pharma company that makes Xdemvy is working on something for MGD. Let's hope it's as effective as Xd!! But I'm seriously considering IPL in a few months.

Has anyone done IPL?

asheeb901, keep using lid wipes and do try the nano brush. Speaking of lid wipes, have you noticed that they don't tell you what it's really for? They must be afraid people will freak out if they knew. They say to use one scrub per lid, which is their way of warning us to not transfer the mites from one eye to the other. Just tell us that, damn it. If they had, I'd be two years further ahead in my progress.
