"After years of searching these posts for user reviews of treatments for Tinea Barbae, I have yet to find one. There has to be others like me out there. It is not easy having your face look this way. Let me start by saying that I have had this 'condition' of what was most recently diagnosed as Tinea Barbae for years. I am 23 now and can remember the origins of it in high school. My case has been treated as acne in a thousand different ways, and only recently did my dermatologist do a fungal test that came out positive. I was originally prescribed a topical antifungal cream (Lamisil) and oral terbinafine for 2 weeks. No improvement. Went back, dermatologist switched me to griseofulvin for 4 weeks. I just completed week 2 yesterday (4/12) and have seen no improvement."
