The risk sensitization is so high with PPD and so is permanent scarring even after the blisters and swelling subside, topical steroids and silicone … possible laser therapy once fully healed. An antihistamine for discomfort. Henna itself is rarely an allergen, this isnt henna however. This is the equivalent of black hair dye directly on the pt’s skin for an extended period of time.
