    A nice, stingy, alcohol based AS, but I'm being flippant...depends on how 'bloody' your skin ends up. If it's actually bloody, the remedy is STOP!!!

    Well, if it's bloody it's because you are injuring yourself. You need to figure out what you are doing wrong technique wise.

    As TBS said, it is prob a technique thing. Use less preasure and short light strokes. Check you rblade angle and make sure it is low. With the changing geometry of the chin it is difficult to maintain the correct blade angle. The chin is a prob area for everyone.
    Over time your technique will improve. For now just stick with WTG passes.

    all i can tell you is practice and your technique when i started out shaving my face was all kind of messed up and little spots of blood coming out. I just kept at it and perfected my technique and now i have really nice shaves every time instead of just every now and then and when you are bleeding like that i have used styptic pencil to stop the bleeding and soothe the skin it hurts like crazy but it does help. practice makes perfect!!
