Question

I'm really worried because my face and neck are a lot darker than the rest of my body. I've also got these dark spots on my face, especially on both sides of my forehead, which are even darker. I recently started using a sunscreen with SPF 50, but it hasn't made any difference. I used to play outside in the sun a lot around 4 years ago, and I wonder if that's what's causing this. What can I do to fix this? I'm really looking for some advice on how to lighten these areas and get rid of the dark spots.

Question

I'm dealing with pimples that won't go away, and they're causing this reddish sensation and a bit of burning. I've heard about using RetinoA Tretinoin Cream for this, but I'm not sure if it's really good for these recurring pimples. Is it effective, or could it make the redness and burning worse? What should I expect if I start using it?

Question

I've been using mx2 solution and Hairgro serum on and off for a year, and they worked well for a while. But recently, I've noticed a lot of hair loss again over the past couple of months. Could the medication be causing this? Should I stop using it? And do you think it'll get worse if I stop?
