Hey, so I've been dealing with this acne hyperpigmentation and scars issue, and back in February, a dermatologist gave me two creamsdepiwhite and cutisoftfor 20 days. But I kind of messed up by not going back for a follow-up and just kept using them for about seven months. When I finally went back, he said my skin got darker and extra sensitive, leading to more pimples. Now he's given me kozimax and glocin gel. I'm really curious if glocin gel helps fade scars or if it just targets the bacteria. Also, is having regular acne something that could hint at liver damage?

  1. How Glocin Gel Works

    • Nicotinamide: Reduces inflammation and improves skin tone.
    • Clindamycin: Targets acne-causing bacteria.
  2. Effectiveness on Acne Scars

    • Nicotinamide may help with inflammation but is not a primary scar-fading agent.
    • Clindamycin does not directly fade scars.
    • Consider additional treatments for scar reduction.
  3. Acne and Liver Health

    • Common causes: Hormonal changes, stress, diet.
    • Regular acne is not typically a sign of liver damage.
    • Evaluate liver function if other symptoms or risk factors are present.
  4. Recommendations

    • Consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.
    • Explore treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy for scars.
    • Monitor overall health and consult a doctor if liver health concerns arise.
