People often report an initial worsening when starting with Soolantra. For some the skin can somewhat more red and irritated than that. It’s unclear whether this is a temporary worsening before it gets better, or incompatible skin with Soolantra. Although, if I’m correct, all people here on this forum have success with Soolantra.

You could try this:
- Reduce frequency of application. You could temporary stop, give the skin some rest before continuing again. For example, instead of applying it every day, apply in once per 3 days.
- Apply less Soolantra per application.
- Reduce concentration of ivermectin by adding a moisturizer after applying Soolantra. Or maybe even a bit before applying Soolantra.
Personally, I didn’t get red circles, but my skin did got a bit redder and new small lessions appeared, although they didn’t really ooze.
I would be interested in seeing a photo of a red circle and the severness of it, because I’m not sure what to visualize from it.
