To address hyperpigmentation around your chin, start by incorporating sunscreen and targeted treatments like vitamin C or niacinamide into your daily routine. Exfoliation with AHAs or BHAs can also help, and consider adding a retinoid to speed up skin renewal. If needed, consult a dermatologist for more advanced treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy.

I'm really confused about why my doctor prescribed desonide for my hair loss and dandruff issues. Can it actually help with hair regrowth, or is it just for treating the dandruff? I'm worried because I didn't expect this kind of treatment for hair problems. Could you help me understand how desonide fits into this?

Question

I'm Siddhu and I've got some long-term acne scars on both sides of my cheeks. I've tried a bunch of creams, but they just make me look unnatural. So, I'm thinking about using a 0.5mm dermaroller on my face. I'm 18, and I'm really wondering if it's safe to use one at my age? Are there any future risks, or is it completely safe? Can you give me some honest advice and safety tips about using it on my face?
