As the doctor for prescription beta-val cream. I also had used the aquaphor cream, but found beta-val to work much better. You put it on gently, no ned to rub it in sore skin. It will gradually soak in, I have no scars from my radiation. As far the the mask goes, I used to just close my eyes and try to pretend I was laying on a beach. Sometimes I would count, but I always closed my eyes so I wouldnt feel so confined. The hair on the back of his neck will grow back quickly.
