It is suggested to consult a dermatologist on the development of dark spots on the skin even when using sunscreen. A dermatologist will have a look at your skin and determine the necessary treatment to be executed. They also can manage other problems such as low vitamin D3 levels and allergies to hay fever.

I am 34 years I have facing dark spot and acne in cheeks Please give any suggestions

Male | 34

Acne occurs when the oil and the dead skin cells can no longer exit through the pores, thus they produce pimples. The dark marks left by the acne might be possible. A gentle cleanser that is used twice daily and an oil-free moisturizer every other day can be helpful. Besides, try using the products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to cure acne.

You are likely suffering from cellulitis, which is an infection. This can happen when bacteria enter the body through an injury or insect bite. The infection usually causes redness, swelling, and pain in the affected area. Besides these symptoms, you may also feel severe pain. If the infection spreads, it can lead to serious issues like shortness of breath and joint pain. It is crucial to get antibiotic treatment immediately to stop the infection.

You Suggest Me that i can get cleanup on face because I am teenager

Male | 19

Most youngsters need a face cleanup. When you see that your pores are clogged, whether it is blackheads, or pimples, the cause of these things can be either dirt, bacteria, or skin oil production. Aside from that, do not forget to cleanse your face twice a day with a mild oil-free cleanser, to make your face glow and not raise the probability of skin infection, use a face moisturizer and do not keep touching your face.

My face having to much pimple and acne.my skin type is oily which facewash and serum I use for my skin please give me suggestions

Female | 24

Oily skin is common and can lead to pimples and acne. The symptoms are so shiny skin, big pores, and sometimes breakouts. The cause of oily skin is the excessive sebum production by the skin. Salicylic acid face wash to unclog pores will suffice for this purpose. Oil control is also possible with a serum containing niacinamide.

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.

Female baldness at age of 18 wo v kafi saalon se pehle v hair bhot hi thin the par ab bhot jyada hogay hai ek saal ke andar khatam hi hojayenge aysa lagra h center part pe hora h

Female | 18

Several reasons for female baldness at the age of 18 include hormonal imbalances, stress factors in one’s life, taking certain medicines and underlying medical conditions. A visit to a hair loss dermatologist will help discover the underlying causes of this condition and recommend suitable treatments. Early intervention frequently results in good outcomes.

Hydroquinone for skin lightening

Male | 18

Let me give you the lowdown on hydroquinone: it’s a common ingredient found in skin lightening products. This is because it works by reducing melanin in the skin. So if you have dark spots such as age or sun spots, using hydroquinone could help fade them away. However, don’t forget that you must be cautious not to misuse it since this can cause some undesired effects. As a rule, always follow directions given by the manufacturer when using any cosmetic product and also watch out for any allergic reactions.

Female | 21

Hi Muskan... Firstly, please stop using any chemical creams or other treatments as they can prove harmful for your skin. Instead, try going for moisturizers to keep your skin hydrated and use natural ingredients like honey, turmeric etc. to lighten your skin. I also advise you to apply sunscreen when going out. Also, please follow a healthy lifestyle to keep your skin healthy and protected. I hope this answer proved helpful.
