Do acne scars go away?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
That depends on the depth and type of the scars. With few types of peels and derma abrasions depth of the scars can be reduced.

I've tried using itch guard and tetmosol total, but it seems to be getting worse instead of better. It all started in the summer. Could there be a reason why these symptoms keep increasing even with treatment? Any advice on what might help or if I should be checking for something specific?

I've been dealing with a fungal infection on my hips for the past two years, and it's getting unbearable. It hurts a lot and the itching is intense, sometimes even causing bleeding when I itch. I've been treating it for two years, but the moment I stop the medication, it comes back. I can't even get a good night's sleep because of it. Can you please help me figure out what to do?
