Generally speaking, the present invention comprises a first ingenol mebutate treatment cycle and a second ingenol mebutate treatment cycle, wherein the first treatment cycle topically treats a treatment area with a topical gel formulated with ingenol mebutate at a selected dosage strength for a specified treatment regimen, and the second ingenol mebutate treatment cycle comprises topically re-treating the treatment area with the same topical ingenol mebutate gel for the same specified treatment regimen, if following the first treatment cycle, the treatment area failed to clear or failed to remain clear of AK lesions. The present invention further relates to spot or individual lesion therapy in the treatment area following the topical bi-cyclic therapy with ingenol mebutate.
