• Damage area. If you need to restore a large area of ​​the skin, it is better to use aerosols. For smaller areas, creams and ointments are great.
• The affected area. If a problem appears near or on the mucous membrane, you need to select funds that can be applied to the appropriate area. A significant part of the compositions cannot be applied to mucous membranes.
• The presence of complications. To eliminate inflammatory reactions, it is better to use formulations with heparin, antibiotics and analgesics.
