Hi. Acne is a recurrent problem especially in youth. You can go for a course of Retiniods for Almost complete remission from acne. But first you need to get some blood tests as advised by a certified dermatologist before starting the course. You need to be monitored by dermatologist during the course. 

Coming to your Question about Laser , if you are asking does laser helps in acne ? No. Laser is used to treat Acne scars  not acne itself. Chemical Peels can be used for Quick and effective treatment of acne.

Female | 24

Your skin is giving you a lot of trouble such as clogged pores, uneven pigmentation, acne, acne scars, and dullness. These may be caused by bacteria, the shedding of dead skin cells, and inflammation. You can try using a gentle cleanser, products that respect the skin barrier, medications that contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, and sun protection.

Female | 19

Darker skin and dark spots can occur from excessive sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation. This issue can be solved by the application of skin whitening and brightening treatments which contain substances such as vitamin C, niacinamide, or kojic acid. Also, think about treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy to aid in the removal of dark spots. To ensure your skin's safety, always wear sunscreen to shield it from the sun and other harmful rays.

A red colored and long mass type thing is coming out from belly button. thick yellow discharge also came out sometimes from belly button. I have no pain, no swelling, no discomfort, nothing

Female | 24

It looks as though you burgeon an umbilical granuloma which is a small piece of tissue that protrudes from your belly button. The yellow discharge may be an indication of the infection. In some instances, it could come on without any pain or swelling. To do this, you have to keep the area clean and dry. It is also possible that you will need antibiotics when the infection gets worse.

Does Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim cure Chlamydia?

Male | 19

Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim also recognized as Bactrim is not usually used in treating chlamydia. This is because it is a bacteria that spreads through intimate contact. This may lead to painful urination, unusual discharge, and sometimes no signs at all. Normally, antibiotics such as azithromycin or doxycycline are used to cure chlamydia. If you suspect that you have the disease, it is important to get tested and treated so as to avoid any further complications.
