Can you give me any advice on a cream or natural remedy to help fade a skin burn mark on my face? I bleached my skin recently and ended up with a burn. It's gotten a bit better, but I still have some noticeable scars and marks. I'd really appreciate any suggestions to help get rid of these.

To help reduce the appearance of skin burn marks on your face, you can consider using a cream containing silicone gel. One example is Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, which can be applied to the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you may also benefit from using a cream containing vitamin E, such as Strataderm, to help improve the texture of the scarred skin. Remember to apply these creams as directed by the manufacturer for best results.

Question

I'm really worried about this rash that started on my wrist and between my fingers. It began as a purple spot, but now it's changed to an orange color. It's spreading from the original spot, and I'm not sure if this is something serious. What could be causing these changes, and should I be concerned about it spreading further?

Question

I'm using the Truderma Acne Kit that my doctor prescribed because I've been breaking out on my face. I think the night cream might not be working for me since it's making the spots darker instead of helping them. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

Question

I've noticed some white hairs appearing in my beard and I'm a bit worried about it happening at this age. Are there any treatments or products out there that could help with this? Should I be looking into medicines or maybe some kind of lotion? Would love some advice on what I can do to get it back to how it was.
