Thank you so much for your reply! I have an appointment with my current dermatologist next week & I will ask about the Tofacitinib ointment. I do have an appointment with another dermatologist who is supposed to be more specialized in skin disease, but unfortunately I couldn't get in to see him until the end of July. It sounds like the ointment has helped you! How long before you saw any results ? Do you use the ointment everyday now or just when you notice a "flare"?
Thank You!

Hi Mimi,
I had to wait to see dr #2 but continue to call in to see about cancellations and was able to get in quicker.
I use the Tofi ointment
2x/day on the "live" areas. Once the raised, red edges subside i stop applying on those areas.
I did see results on the older lesions soon after use. Thankfully, only 2 small (< dime size) new areas have appeared but are not growing.
Good luck!
