So, I recently used chuna powder to remove a mole, and now the surrounding skin is burned, although it's completely healed now. The thing is, there's a small scar and a tiny hole-like uneven surface left behind. I'm using dermadew soap and can see the scar lightening a bit. I'm really hoping to get rid of the uneven surface and scar. Can you suggest a cream that might help with this?

Question

I've noticed this dark patch appearing on my temple, right between my forehead and nose. The skin texture feels normal, not rough or anything, but it looks like it's just more tanned than the rest of my face. I'm pretty sure it's not actually a tan. What can I do to make it go away?

Question

I've just finished a treatment for lichen planus, and the bumps and itching have stopped, thankfully. However, the marks are still visible, and I really want them gone quicker if possible. The dermatologist mentioned they'd fade over time, but is there anything I can do to speed up the process and get rid of these marks in a few months to a year?

Question

I'm trying to figure out whether I should use Neosporin powder or a Betadine tube for treating wounds on the knees and elbows from falling on the road. I know Betadine is used with dressing, which can be so sticky and painful when changing it. On the other hand, I've heard Neosporin powder is just sprinkled over the wound. Could you help me decide which might be better?
