Post acne marks and post acne scars can be permanent if not treated in time. It is important to treat the ongoing acne and orevent further acne while simultateously treating the post acne marks and scars. Saicylic peels, topical retinoids, comedone extraction are prescribed by the Dermatologists to treat the black heads which are the initial stage of acne. Acne marks can be treated with superficial peels like gycolic acid peels, TCA peels, laser toning etc. Acne scars depending on their type and severity, a stand-alone or combination of treatments including subcision, erbium yag or CO laser, microneedling radofrequencuy or TCA cross etc are used. It is recommended to visit a qualified Dermatologist who would analyse the scars and advise the best possible treatment for scar improvement.

I have pimples what is the best treatment for pimples and also acne and how to remove tan

Female | 15

Pimples, acne, and tan are usual skin problems. Red bumps are the assets of the pimple, while a bunch of pimples adds up to a pimple. They are the result of both oily skin and dirt on it. The face can be washed twice a day to achieve this. Implements such as benzoyl peroxide can be used to cure them. Tan is dark skin which is the result of the sun. Using sunscreen can prevent this. Getting rid of the tan takes time, use the skin-lightening creams or laser treatments instead.

I had toenail torn off now a little black dot on skin toe is painful

Female | 50

It is very common to see these symptoms if you have undergone an episode of toenails being torn off. This is generally due to subungual haematoma. The foot infection can be prevented by visiting a podiatrist or a specialist for treatment.

Good morning I have acne marks problems ...and I tried many of the oilments home remedies etc ..but I couldn't get any result..there is a black spot on face due to pimple so if you suggest any oilment for it.it might be helpful

Female | 23

If its only acne marks, continuing your acne treatment with facewash and gels will improve it. Some topical agents also helps in removing the pigmentation and marks of the acne. Even Salic acid 20% gel at night on spots is helpful. Glyco 6 or Glycolic acid 6% is recommended for application on the face. Acne compatible sunscreen is also helpful. Chemical Peeling with glycolic acid or salicylic acid is useful

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent

Female | 18

Dealing with acne­ spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using aze­laic acid: safe for most people. A 10% conce­ntration is effective. It re­duces acne breakouts and fade­s discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cle­ansing. Complement with sunscree­n and moisturizer.

LINEATOR & LYCOMIX Q10 BOTH MEDICINE IS SAME.

Male | 39

Lineator and Lycomix Q10 never will be the same. They are quite different. Lineator is a medicine for treating upset stomach and relieving acid reflux. Lycomix Q10, on the other hand, is a supplement that contains the active ingredient Coenzyme Q10. It is mostly taken for improving heart health and for boosting energy. Don't forget to consult your doctor to determine if new drugs and/or supplements are right for you.

I have fungal infection in my groin area and around belly button. I have been using this medicine ketoconazole neomycin dexpanthenol iodochlorhydroxyquinoline tolnaftate & clobetasol propionate cream for quite some time but it is not able to cure the problem. I'm maintaining a strong hygiene too. Please recommend something

Male | 23

I suggest that you visit a dermatologist who is capable of diagnosing the type and level of the fungal infection. The treatment plan will be based on the diagnosis. Prescription of the suitable antifungal medication will be done followed by advice on hygiene practices to prevent further infection.

Female | 19

If you have active pimples, acne, and dark spots, it’s best to see a dermatologist. They can give you proper treatment to clear your skin and reduce dark spots. Avoid using harsh products on your own as they might make things worse.
