Extreme dryness can be such an uncomfortable side effect that many in this community experience during treatment. Consider discussing moisturizing strategies, hydration tips, and gentle skincare routines with your care team, as they may have specific recommendations based on your current treatment plan - and hopefully others here will share what has worked well for them too.

I use eucerin very dry sensitive skin. It doesn't spread easily but it helps.

Try L’occtain moisturizer. It’s thick and spreads easy. That’s what I use for my dry skin. It flakes all over.
