Treatment guideline
There is no solid retrospective data on the symptomatic recurrence rate after a successful treatment. Available evidence suggests a high chance of over 50% recurrence rate within a 4-year period. Sometimes new lesions appear while patients are busy treating other patches. A high disease recurrence rate suggests that a life-long supporting skincare is necessary to achieve acceptable and continuous cosmetic results.
