View allI've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

I've been trying to understand how often PRP treatment can be done because different clinics are saying different things. Some say they would apply the treatment twice a month over three months if the hair doesn't grow, which adds up to six times in three months. Is this frequency safe and effective? I'm concerned about whether there's a standard or if overdoing it could have side effects.
Yes continue as advised by the dermatologist.
