Rash on face
I had been suffering from rashes around my nose from 2 years. I used various steriods, but the problem aggravtes once I stop it. My current doctor suspects its is seborrheic dermatitis and advised for chemical peel. So does it permanentaly cure the problem, as it removes the superficial layer of skin? And what are the various laboratory tests performed to pinpoint skin diseases and allergies?
