Possible Basal Cell Carcinoma, From Janet in Australia (Capital Territory)
I first started searching the internet for the definition of BCC when I returned home one day from my general practitioner (GP) and she questioned as to whether the fleshy coloured growth that had appeared quite rapidly under my right eye was indeed BCC. She had only referred to it as this acronym and when I started searching the internet for the definition was quite startled to find it was a type of skin cancer. One of the very first pages that I found was the Perrin's Home Page, so I was quick just to jump on the bandwagon and give a product which appeared to have quite high antioxidant properties a go. The moment I received it I applied it quite thickly and covered it with a small bandaid and left it there day and night. As it was the school holidays I was able to leave it on 24 hours a day, only uncovering it each morning to reapply. Within the first 24 hours, I noticed straight away that the skin coloured fleshy lump approximately 3x3mm had flattened some what and lost its puffy appearance. The changes that took place in the first week were quite astounding as it kept peeling away a layer at a time. My so called BCC was rapidly shrinking in size however I did have to return to work after a week so only applied the balm in the evenings and removed it each morning. The immediate changes were quite dramatic and the healing process was somewhat slowed down as I was only wearing it part of the day. But amazingly it has completely peeled away and healed and there is no longer any sign of there having been a growth under my eye. This whole process did take about 10 weeks and sometimes I thought it would never go away, but finally it did. You'll never know how happy I am, my GP had referred me to a plastic surgeon to have it removed and biopsied. I was fairly traumatised by this thought as this lump was about 1cm under my eye in the really thin area of skin where a scar would not have healed so great and been that attractive. To this day, this is probably the only product that I have personally every purchased that actually did what it said it potentially could do and for that I will be eternally grateful. In this day of the www world we are potentially led down the garden path to buy so many things and not many are really what they are made out to be. This product saved me from having surgery on my face, directly under my eye. I have now returned to the web site to buy a face cream as I have no doubt it will assist me with the overall appearance of my skin. I am now going to use the same Perrin's product [Perrin’s Blend] on 2 keloid scars where I had some moles lasered and they have overhealed causing uncomfortable keloid scars which are itchy, hard lumps.
I will return to the website later in the year and report back on how these scars have healed.
