How to get rid of my persistent nose crease?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

I understand how worrying and frustrating it can be to notice a mark on your face, especially at 18, when even small skin changes can feel very noticeable.

Please be reassured that a nose crease is usually not harmful and is quite common among young people. In most cases, it occurs due to repeated nose-rubbing from allergies or habits, mild eczema, seborrheic dermatitis affecting the nose folds, or post-inflammatory pigmentation left after prior irritation.

Additionally, natural facial expressions and skin folds can become more visible over time, particularly in sensitive skin.

Tacrolimus cream is often prescribed for inflammation or eczema on the face and is generally safe to use. However, it does not always improve pigmentation or a fixed crease, which might explain why you have not seen much improvement.

At this stage, it is crucial to avoid rubbing or touching your nose frequently. Use a gentle, fragrance-free face wash and apply a light moisturizer regularly to support your skin barrier. Daily use of sunscreen is also essential, as sun exposure can make creases and pigmentation more noticeable.

I suggest these simple steps for you to achieve better skin.

1. Avoid rubbing or touching your nose repeatedly.

2. Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser.

3. Apply a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer twice daily.

4. Use daily sunscreen (sun protection factor 30 or higher), even indoors.

If possible, please share a clear picture of your face or the nose crease, taken in good daylight without a flashlight. This will help me determine whether you have an actual crease or just shadow pigmentation so that I can suggest further options.

I hope this clarifies your doubts. Please take a moment to rate and provide your valuable feedback.

Thank you.
