"I am using it for a week, and the spots (precancerous spots) on my face are very red. Everyone that I know is asking what happened to my face. I am hoping that this is a good sign and is going to work. I keep you posted."

"Used for 6 weeks in total, but with only 4 weeks application to any one place. Started with hands, then forearms, back of neck and face. After completing all these, I am now doing my ears for the next 2 weeks. My skin quickly covered with horrible red blotches. I had lots of weeping from the back of my neck (and now ears), especially when in contact with a pillow. The red patches eventually scabbed over but still oozed fluid initially before drying and were extremely itchy the entire scab time. I looked like a monster from a 1950s horror film the whole time. Uncomfortable - yes! Worth it - yes!!!!! I knew I had massive skin damage and it was good to see it exfoliated. Most of the scab is now off my hands and arms (due to scratching and pulling at scale), and the underlying redness of the new skin is starting to fade. My left hand and forearm have the deepest and most enduring scabs, while my neck, face, and right hand/arm are already scab free."

"I have been using Tolak for 8 days, and my skin is red and hot. My doctor's instructions for use and the medication's instructions for use were conflicting. The medication says to use it once daily in the evening, however, my doctor prescribed using it twice daily. I started twice daily, then stopped after reading more about it. I can't imagine myself lasting 4 weeks. Will see how I feel after 2 weeks and make a decision if I continue with it."
