I had good success on my elbows (however I don't have severe P).My major problem is PA. My elbows have been clear for about 6 months now. It didn't do anything for my scalp though. Good luck

Yes I have used Ellidel for areas on my face, eyebrows, scalp, only. It was ok, but always made my face hot and burned a little. It did take away a lot of the dryness and scaling.

I have tried Elidel (around my eyes and corners of lips) and it seemed to help. I have also used Protopic, which is an ointment, where Elidel is a cream, and I think Protopic works a bit better for me. Good luck.

I also used Protopic and not Elidel (just because it was what my derm suggested) but I think they are quite similar in the results and what sort of problem they are used for.
