I did use Aquaphor on my skin before they gave me Biafine and the Aquaphor was much, much less effective than the Biafine which they gave me late in the process. I even have an Aloe product called Aloe Relief that I have used for years that seemed to work better than the Aquaphor. Biafine cannot be used on open wounds so if your skin has now cracked, you would have to wait for that to heal before using. Ask your doc about it.

Take care,
Eileen
