Introduction
This is a 50-year-old patient with a lesion on the tip of the nose. The lesion has been present for about 5 years and the patient described it as like having a sun burn. This was because the skin was peeling off at times but it never completely healed. The patient was eventually diagnosed as having a skin lesion known as keratosis.

Method of Treatment
This patient saw an advertisement about Dr. Calmez and the skin cancer cream (CURADERM BEC5). She applied for this and applied the cream to the tip of the nose several times a day.

Description of Treatment
The patient did not notice any change for a few days but eventually woke up one morning to find that the lesion had dried up and the skin appeared to be scabbing over. After 2 more days on treatment the patient found that the scab had gone and the area under the scab was clean and that the skin looked normal.

Results
In this case a patient with keratosis was successfully treated with CURADERM and there was no mention of any recurrence.

Conclusion
This lesion was therefore successfully treated with CURADERM-BEC5 without having to resort to surgery and further follow up showed no recurrence of the lesion.
