Question

I've been using adapero mixed with nioclean for my pimples and scars, and it was working so well at first, my scars were actually fading. But then I found out I shouldn't be in the sun too much while using these. I spent a day at the beach, and now the areas where my skin was healing look really dark, almost black where the pimples and scars were. What can I do to fix this? Will the dark spots eventually fade away?

The post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) caused by sun exposure while using adapalene and niacinamide may fade over time with consistent sun protection, topical treatments, and patience, but consult your dermatologist for personalized guidance and treatment.

Question

I'm really worried after using Faiza cream for 3 months. It did clear up my pimples and dark marks, and my skin looks so much fairer, which was great at first. But then I read online that it might have side effects like skin cancer, and now I'm freaking out. I'm thinking about stopping the cream, but I'm scared if that might cause any problems. Can you help me figure out what to do?

Question

I'm dealing with a boil where I've managed to remove the pus, but the core hasn't come out yet. While the pain has gone down, I'm still a bit worried because I've dealt with recurring boils in the past. Right now, I'm dressing it two to three times a day and using Betadine ointment for it. I'm really careful about hygiene when cleaning the boils, but I'm not sure if Betadine is actually good for them. Could you suggest some medicine to help cure the boil and prevent them from coming back?

Question

I've been using ELOSONE HT Cream for over three months and saw a real improvement in my skin color. But then I began to get pimples, and they left black marks that started spreading, so I stopped using the cream. Now, my face seems to be darkening really quickly. I'm worried and wondering if I should start using the cream again or try something else. What do you think?
