Question

I'm dealing with a lot of acne after getting my face threaded, and my doctor put me on Minoz OD and Avene Triacneal cream for 10 days. The thing is, my acne's actually getting worse, and the scars look more noticeable. I thought the cream would make it peel, but it's just drying it out, and I'm not seeing any peeling even after 10 days. I'm wondering how long I'm supposed to keep using this stuff before I see any results? Why am I ending up with new pimples every day? Could it be the treatment or just a coincidence? Ive never had this many pimples on my face before. What should I do? Any insights on how long it usually takes for acne to fade with these treatments?

Question

I've been dealing with this issue where the skin on my lower lip tends to harden and then get really dry. I always end up peeling it off, but then the whole cycle just starts over again. It's pretty frustrating. What could be causing this, and how can I stop it from happening?

Question

I'm wondering if clindamycin phosphate gel works well for oily, acne-prone skin. I tried it because a doctor recommended it to me, but I haven't noticed any improvement. I checked with a dermatologist in Jaipur who mentioned that it might not be effective due to hormonal changes, especially since I recently got married. Does that sound right to you? Is there something else I should consider?

Question

I'm curious about whether salt water can actually affect my skin color or hair. I've heard that salt in water might turn your skin black or cause grey hair. Since most underground water seems to have salt, should I be worried about any changes in my skin pigment or hair color? Is it true that salt water isn't good for the skin? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give!
