Head Shaving / Re: shaving head with rocasea
« Last post by slybeard on Today at 06:58:57 AM »
I think is was the strong antibiotics she was given.  She did later have radiation for the cancer, but the rosacea was gone with the antibiotics.

However, when she had the rosacea, it would come and go frequently for no reason at all.  But us never completely went away, there was always some level of redness.

@slybeard I'm sorry she went through that and I'm glad she recovered. Do you think the cancer treatment is what made the rocasea vanish?

The thing that also doesn't make sense to me is that usually after a few days of head shaving the redness goes away but this time it hasn't which scares me

If it is rosacea, then it is not likely due to head shaving.  Maybe it is  just be more visible with the shaved head.

My wife had rosacea for years. Her doctor sad there was no cure, but some treatments may reduce the affects.  In here case, in addition to the redness, she would get pimples and acne.  After about 10 years dealing with it, she was treated for unrelated cancer in her stomach and the initial treatment was a high dose of an antibiotic.  The rosacea disappeared and has never come back.

According to two dermatologists, I do in fact have rosacea which is apparently what the redness in my face is when I shave my head.



Does anyone else here who shaves their had hald deal with the same issue? And do you have suggestions? appreciate it.

Reactions to being Bald / Re: Do you really like being bald?

I guess you can say I like it, today is my 12th baldiversary! No matter how many times I attempt to grow my hair, I always get the razor out and return to totally bald! It just feels so great.

Yesterday, I was at a car show and a young man about 20yo walked by me and said "wow" , ran his hand over his buzzcut head and gave me the thumbs up. I had done a nice shave and had a great shine, guess he liked it!

My second anniversary will be soon. I do not miss letting my hair grow. I don't mind being called "baldie"
