Mole removal from the face can be achieved through various methods, including surgical excision, shave excision, laser removal, cryotherapy, and electrosurgery. Plastic surgery, particularly excisional methods, is a safe option for removing moles, especially when performed by a qualified professional. Potential side effects include scarring, infection, and pigmentation changes. The average cost of mole removal can range from Rs. 3000 to Rs. 15,000 per mole, depending on factors like location and the specific procedure

I'm struggling with persistent irritation and itchiness in my groin area, especially after long drives in hot and humid conditions. Initially, keeping the area dry and using Candid Clotrimazole powder would help, but now it seems to have become a recurring issue. The skin's darker with some scaling, and the itchiness and burning sensation return if I skip a bath or don't use the powder every 12 hours. I'm wearing loose clothing and trying to keep the area as dry as possible, but I'm not seeing any permanent relief. What can I do to completely get rid of this problem?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I've been dealing with really dark and pigmented knees, and it's super embarrassing. I've tried using brightening creams and even a bunch of home remedies, but nothing seems to work. Could you recommend any medication or treatment that might help?

Dark and pigmented knees can be a cosmetic concern. Here are some suggestions: *Topical Treatments* 1. *Hydroquinone cream*: A common treatment for hyperpigmentation. However, use it under a dermatologist's guidance. 2. *Kojic acid cream*: Helps reduce melanin production and hyperpigmentation. 3. *Retinoid cream*: Derivatives of vitamin A that can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Home Remedies* 1. *Lemon juice and honey*: Mix equal parts lemon juice and honey, apply to knees, and rinse after 20 minutes. 2. *Cucumber and turmeric*: Grate cucumber, mix with turmeric powder, and apply to knees. 3. *Coconut oil and sugar*: Mix coconut oil and sugar, gently scrub knees, and rinse.
