Can I just use Ezanic 20 gel on my acne marks? I'm really hoping to get this cleared up, and I'd love some advice on whether that's the right approach. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Yes, you can use Ezanic 20% gel (azelaic acid) directly on acne marks to help reduce their appearance, inflammation, and hyperpigmentation; apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas only, once or twice a day, and be patient as it may take a few weeks to see noticeable improvements.

View allI've been dealing with some itching in my crotch area and inner thigh, and there's also a noticeable smell. I think it might be because I work out but only shower about twice a week. I just picked up Candid TV suspension and itch guard from the chemist. I'm wondering if using these will fix the issue or if there's more I should be doing. Also, is it okay to use soap in the groin area, or should I avoid it?
No. continue same treatment.

I've been using Cosglo gel for two months but haven't seen any results yet. Is there a specific time I should be applying it to help with dark spots, or should I be doing something else? I'm starting to worry if it's actually effective. Can you give me any advice on this?

I'm using Ilumax skin brightening cream by Ajanta to help with tanning and get a fairer skin tone. I'm curious, how long does it usually take to start seeing results with this cream? Also, how long should I continue using it to maintain the fairness? I'm a bit worried about what happens after I stop using the cream. Will my skin get darker again? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Candid cream for local application is advised, once a day,at bed time for 2 weeks is advised.
