Question

I've been using Skin Shine cream on and off for about three months, and a few days after stopping, I noticed my skin turned pinkish and dry, and it started peeling. Now my face looks darker than before. I went to see a dermatologist, and she recommended I start using Photoban 30, Nilac gel, and Azac cream every day. I'm really worried and just wondering how long it might take before my skin goes back to normal. Any advice would be really appreciated.

It is difficult to give an exact timeline as individual responses to treatment can vary. However, with regular and proper use of the prescribed medications, you may start to see improvements in your skin within a few weeks to a couple of months. It is important to follow your dermatologist's instructions carefully and be patient with the treatment process.

My son has been having these black spots on his palms and feet lately and they're really itchy. The spots seem to be growing and they're actually under the skin, not on top. The skin over these spots feels hard, kind of like how it looks on people who do a lot of weightlifting or use shovels a lot. Plus, he sweats a lot, especially on his hands and feet. Really worried about whats going on here, any ideas?
