[Deleted member 295727]

Be careful with hydrocortisone. Someone I know had eczema and overused it loads and now the skin on their hands looks 80 years old. Like super wrinkly and coarse

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:

View attachment 3494895​

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.

Spoiler: Quick Word on Retinoids

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).

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:

View attachment 3494895​

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.

Spoiler: Quick Word on Retinoids

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).

And that's it! I hope this helps you all and I will see you guys again very soon​

probably useful to people with honkers on their face, but i am luckily not one of those so this thread doesn't provide me any use

 

[Sadist]

did your skin become lighter due to lighting or something else?

yes bro im indian

what Hydrocortisone did you use and where did you get it could u send a pic i just wanna make sure im getting the right shi

any generic 1% from your local pharmacy (unless youre a germancel, those fellas only have 0.5%)

 

[JohanBigBalle]

Nice thread. Btw would it be dumb of me to get a nose job to make the tip slimmer if my diet isnt dialed yet? I dont have crazy acne, I might have 1 pimple on my face a week, but I'm not sure if my nose has inflammation or not.

Because if it does, and I get a nose job to make it slimmer, and then some time in the future fix my diet, then what if my nose tip gets unnaturally slim lmao

I might get free septoplasty because of deviated septum causing issues and could ask the surgeon to slim my tip

 

[tension]

i guess thats exactly why its second most-repped thread on the entire forum

okay thanks so i can buy it from amazon and it’ll have the same effects? even if it says “lotion” or for eczema

 

[Zygomaas]

Thought you had to apply it in the evening without removing it? Like, letting it on your nose till the morning. Am I doing something wrong?

 

[Beannosss]

high effort thread, but useless. my nose is too slim already.

 

[raincaryy]

does clobetasol propionate work like hydrocortisone cause i have it

 

[Sadist]

okay thanks so i can buy it from amazon and it’ll have the same effects? even if it says “lotion” or for eczema

check for its contents, if it has 1% hydrocortisone then yea

Thought you had to apply it in the evening without removing it? Like, letting it on your nose till the morning. Am I doing something wrong?

dont overthink it, just apply it for 5-15min and remove

does clobetasol propionate work like hydrocortisone cause i have it

it will most definitely work but dont be surprised if you get some extra side effects because its excessively strong compared to hydrocortisone

apply hc after moisturizer

i use a towel to wipe

i evem mentioned retinoids in this thread as well (tret itself being a retinoid). do use it paired with
hydrocortisone for best effects

use them separately

you can use it in puberty pretty safely imo

yo @Sadist

Checking back in. I’ve been using only tret on my nose every night for exactly two weeks now. It did exactly what you said it would do. It shrank my pores. My nose looks noticeably smaller now, and I appreciate you.

I just wanted to ask, since I’m using tret for general use as well as nose shrinkage, to prevent the enhanced collagen from thickening my nose skin, shouldn’t I completely stop using it on my nose but continue using it on the rest of my face? cheers.

it shouldnt thicken ur nose tbh, but i think the ideal would be to throw in the hydrocortisone so it helps counteract such possibility, alongside additional aforementioned benefits

I see

tbh I only didn't use hydrocortisone because I don’t think my nose is bulbous enough to justify using something consistently for a temporary effect. What are your thoughts on the tret though? Since its been 2 weeks, do you think I should stop using it every day and switch to the same schedule as the rest of my face? And if I do start using hydrocortisone, should I still be applying it every day?
