That’s just how HC works, careful don’t use it to much or that redness will rebound worse
 
I tried this, results weren’t too drastic but noticeable. It’s legit
 
im following this guide

you do hc too? any tips?
I have for a while now, it works okay, don’t do it to many days in a row or you could get rebound redness or in my case, an acne breakout in the spot. Also I kept it only in the alar base sides. I’ll be trying nose Botox soon to see if it’s better
 
By no means is this medical advice. Even though the risks are relatively low, everyone is different and some people may respond to this differently than others (although as I said, the majority should be fine).


"Wait, have you had a nose job?",
two girls that I met at a casino asked me as I got talking to them.
I was very pleasantly surprised to hear that because, although I knew that this method works, I did not realize, until then, just how much my nose has ascended thanks to it.

Hence,

I present to you, by far, one of the most underrated looksmaxes on this forum.

The reason why I'm making an updated version is not only due to what I've said above, but also because I have learned a lot more on this topic since I've made the original thread.

My Progress & Testimonials





Hydrocortisone Info:

I have already talked about this in the first thread, but I will repeat it anyways in a concise way:

Hydrocortisone (HC) is a topical corticosteroid (again, no, not the "scary" anabolic/androgenic steroid for any giga high inhibcels) used to treat inflammation, redness, swelling, etc.

One of its side effects is thinning of skin, which is exactly why it is so effective when it comes to shrinking your nose.

Potential Side Effects of 1% Hydrocortisone (uncommon, mild):


- Skin atrophy (1)
- Rosacea-like eruptions (1)


If you experience any of these, take a break or hop off for good.



Proper Usage of Hydrocortisone:

Apply two pea-sized drops of 1% hydrocortisone cream onto your nose and spread evenly around the cartilage, including the bottom of the nose. I recommend you do not go above the tip of the nose and onto the nose bridge, as we do not want skin thinning there, as it can make the dorsa more prominent. Rub the cream in thoroughly, after which, remove any excess HC from around the nose, but do keep a layer of it on the desired area for about five minutes, then take that off as well. After a few minutes, if not straight away, water may start leeching out of the top of your nose, which is technically a good thing, so just keep wiping it off, that should persist to up to 15 minutes. The effects of hydrocortisone should last for up to an entire day.



Hydrocortisone Regimen:

Get your body used to it. First, apply the cream for two weeks straight, once a day, no matter what. Results most likely won't be very significant from the very first time you apply it.
After that is done, only apply it when you need your nose to shrink, such as when you're going out.





Hydrocortisone's Effects on Your HPA Axis:

If you want to know exactly what you HPA axis is, go look it up. In short terms, it is a system of glands that regulates your stress response and involves the following organs:


Some people have asked me things along the lines of "but xnj, what about you HPA axis, won't that get fucked with while you're on it?".

So here is the answer to this question:

Hydrocortisone raises cortisol. However, one may think that it does not do it to an extent, especially in such low, almost negligible dosages, where it has some sort of effect on the rest of your body, right? Wrong. After prolonged use, your body will feel the slight change and will adapt to it, potentially causing you a bit of trouble.



Preserving Your HPA Axis:
Since HC raises your cortisol, we need something that lowers it. Here is where Ashwagandha comes into play. You know how people claim it has "testosterone-boosting" effects? Well that is the case because it lowers your cortisol (which is what can stagnate test production, hence the claims).

Take 500-800mg (depending on your brand's dosage per pill)
right before you apply the cream. You can keep doing that for about 8 weeks, after which I suggest you take a 4-week break from ashwagandha, whilst also slightly lowering your HC usage. After that, you can resume just as usual.





Since I've mentioned it in my first thread, I will not be giving any in-depth advice on retinoids in this thread, as all you need to do to make your nose shrink from them, is follow their usual regimens. All I'm going to say is that it does shrink the nose in most cases, however not all skin complexions/conditions are predisposed to said shrinkage. But whether to use it or not - is up to you. Take a dermatologist's advice, or at the very least, find reputable threads here if you do want to use it (I'm on about general usage btw, not exclusively for the nose).





My Progress & Testimonials:

My progress so far, although it looks even better IRL:

What about hydrocortisone butyrate 0.1?

By the way, I’ve created a cycle that I believe is the safest and most effective approach, to be honest.

10 mg Accutane continuously – Hydrocortisone butyrate used for 14 days – Tretinoin 0.1% used for the next 14 days – Followed by 7 days of recovery/healing – Then I loop the cycle.

Regarding the 10 mg Accutane: it’s a microdose, but I think it’s the optimal dose for benefits with minimal side effects — like a smaller nose and fuller lips, etc.

After all the 6 cycle, im gonna go botox for nose, specifically nose tips,

after that rhinoplasty, before rhinoplasty, i need to make my nose and nosetips smaller.

me and my homies start that cycle btw, we gonna do atleast 6 cycle.
 
its not that deep honestly
u can use hydrocortisone with close to no side effects permanently; u dont need recovery time
also pairing tret w accutane is a bad idea

My Progress & Testimonials





Hydrocortisone Info:

I have already talked about this in the first thread, but I will repeat it anyways in a concise way:

Hydrocortisone (HC) is a topical corticosteroid (again, no, not the "scary" anabolic/androgenic steroid for any giga high inhibcels) used to treat inflammation, redness, swelling, etc.

One of its side effects is thinning of skin, which is exactly why it is so effective when it comes to shrinking your nose.

Potential Side Effects of 1% Hydrocortisone (uncommon, mild):


- Skin atrophy (1)
- Rosacea-like eruptions (1)


If you experience any of these, take a break or hop off for good.



Proper Usage of Hydrocortisone:

Apply two pea-sized drops of 1% hydrocortisone cream onto your nose and spread evenly around the cartilage, including the bottom of the nose. I recommend you do not go above the tip of the nose and onto the nose bridge, as we do not want skin thinning there, as it can make the dorsa more prominent. Rub the cream in thoroughly, after which, remove any excess HC from around the nose, but do keep a layer of it on the desired area for about five minutes, then take that off as well. After a few minutes, if not straight away, water may start leeching out of the top of your nose, which is technically a good thing, so just keep wiping it off, that should persist to up to 15 minutes. The effects of hydrocortisone should last for up to an entire day.



Hydrocortisone Regimen:

Get your body used to it. First, apply the cream for two weeks straight, once a day, no matter what. Results most likely won't be very significant from the very first time you apply it.
After that is done, only apply it when you need your nose to shrink, such as when you're going out.





Hydrocortisone's Effects on Your HPA Axis:

If you want to know exactly what you HPA axis is, go look it up. In short terms, it is a system of glands that regulates your stress response and involves the following organs:


Some people have asked me things along the lines of "but xnj, what about you HPA axis, won't that get fucked with while you're on it?".

So here is the answer to this question:

Hydrocortisone raises cortisol. However, one may think that it does not do it to an extent, especially in such low, almost negligible dosages, where it has some sort of effect on the rest of your body, right? Wrong. After prolonged use, your body will feel the slight change and will adapt to it, potentially causing you a bit of trouble.



Preserving Your HPA Axis:
Since HC raises your cortisol, we need something that lowers it. Here is where Ashwagandha comes into play. You know how people claim it has "testosterone-boosting" effects? Well that is the case because it lowers your cortisol (which is what can stagnate test production, hence the claims).

Take 500-800mg (depending on your brand's dosage per pill)
right before you apply the cream. You can keep doing that for about 8 weeks, after which I suggest you take a 4-week break from ashwagandha, whilst also slightly lowering your HC usage. After that, you can resume just as usual.





Since I've mentioned it in my first thread, I will not be giving any in-depth advice on retinoids in this thread, as all you need to do to make your nose shrink from them, is follow their usual regimens. All I'm going to say is that it does shrink the nose in most cases, however not all skin complexions/conditions are predisposed to said shrinkage. But whether to use it or not - is up to you. Take a dermatologist's advice, or at the very least, find reputable threads here if you do want to use it (I'm on about general usage btw, not exclusively for the nose).





My Progress & Testimonials:

My progress so far, although it looks even better IRL:

Does retinol do this too or any other product that don't need prescription
 
For me I noticed salicylic acid gave me results of smaller nose quicker, however I used it more frequently 2 or maybe 3 times a day. Will try more and update soon :feelswat:

i heard that it can cause discoloration of the nose, literally obliteration of the cartilage only if injected tho, but still the hydrocortisone still penetrates the skin and gets to the bloodstream. Can i still use it everyday?
 
is it permanent or just for a day?I appreciate an answer
 
not even surgery
look into neurocranial restructuring/release
Late reply but do you know anyone that has tried it, I need anecdotal evidence
 
By no means is this medical advice. Even though the risks are relatively low, everyone is different and some people may respond to this differently than others (although as I said, the majority should be fine).


"Wait, have you had a nose job?",
two girls that I met at a casino asked me as I got talking to them.
I was very pleasantly surprised to hear that because, although I knew that this method works, I did not realize, until then, just how much my nose has ascended thanks to it.

Hence,

I present to you, by far, one of the most underrated looksmaxes on this forum.

The reason why I'm making an updated version is not only due to what I've said above, but also because I have learned a lot more on this topic since I've made the original thread.

been on it for a month now and nothing has changed
 
sadist have you tried betamethasone i heard its a stronger form of hq thoughts on it?
Do you think betamethasone would work for this purpose?
unnecessary, hc alr does the job
id say only try it if hc does fuck all for you, but at own risk

Does retinol do this too or any other product that don't need prescription
doubt, anything below tret is just too weak

i heard that it can cause discoloration of the nose, literally obliteration of the cartilage only if injected tho, but still the hydrocortisone still penetrates the skin and gets to the bloodstream. Can i still use it everyday?
absolutely, dont overthink this. the most youll get from topical hc is slight redness, which is not deep at all. if you do even get it and it does piss u off enough, just use azelaic acid
personally, my nose turned very slightly rosy, but to a negligible extent

is it permanent or just for a day?I appreciate an answer
its not permanent, but it varies from person to person. some use it daily as skincare, and some (like me, especially since i started tret) dont have to use it more than like twice a week

i've been 1 week straight applying it and its okay. Its crazy how red spots went away since day 1 with this compound
 
Is there nose augmentation surgeries? Where can I get best ones?
 
can anybody link me where to buy?

how long did you need to do daily use for it to get used enough to the point where it retains small size? any damage of the skin barrier?
 
Not bad, you can’t get HC without prescription tho

HC up to 1%, which is the percentage Sadist suggests, is available without prescription. If they ask, say you need a cream for topical dermatitis bhai :ogre:

Since HC raises your cortisol, we need something that lowers it. Here is where Ashwagandha comes into play. You know how people claim it has "testosterone-boosting" effects? Well that is the case because it lowers your cortisol (which is what can stagnate test production, hence the claims).

Take 500-800mg (depending on your brand's dosage per pill)
right before you apply the cream. You can keep doing that for about 8 weeks, after which I suggest you take a 4-week break from ashwagandha, whilst also slightly lowering your HC usage. After that, you can resume just as usual.





Since I've mentioned it in my first thread, I will not be giving any in-depth advice on retinoids in this thread, as all you need to do to make your nose shrink from them, is follow their usual regimens. All I'm going to say is that it does shrink the nose in most cases, however not all skin complexions/conditions are predisposed to said shrinkage. But whether to use it or not - is up to you. Take a dermatologist's advice, or at the very least, find reputable threads here if you do want to use it (I'm on about general usage btw, not exclusively for the nose).





My Progress & Testimonials:

My progress so far, although it looks even better IRL:

I dont have pics bro since I wasn't expecting much, but you can def feel your nose thinner and also reduced in size. i used to have red spot in my nose and its gone tho .

How ever don't expect a rhinoplasty result.
