View allI'm really stressed about my upcoming wedding because of my skin tone. I've tried various treatments from skin doctors, but nothing seems to work permanently. Is there a treatment out there that can help with permanent skin whitening? I'm feeling quite overwhelmed and would appreciate any advice.
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I'm really worried about my skin. It's got heavy pigmentation with dark spots and pimples, and it just looks dull and awful, especially when I've been out in the sun. My face gets all dull and dark, with these black patches and dark circles. Even my neck has dark lines and pigmentation. Plus, I've been dealing with a fungal infection that's making me itch in private areas. What can I do to deal with all these skin issues?
For fungal infection and itching in private body parts, you can use an antifungal cream containing clotrimazole or miconazole. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to prevent further irritation. For heavy pigmentation, dark spots, and pimples, you can use a combination of topical treatments such as hydroquinone cream for pigmentation, benzoyl peroxide for pimples, and retinoid cream for dark spots. For tanned and dull skin, you can use a sunscreen with high SPF during the day and a skin brightening cream containing ingredients like vitamin C or niacinamide at night.
