I've been noticing these dark brown spots on my thighs and legs. They don't itch, but I'm worried because they seem to be spreading. My mom thinks it could be from heat. I've also got a couple of spots on my stomach that start off red before turning brownish. Could this be something serious? What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm dealing with back acne that's leaving scars, and my doctor suggested I take Restreta twice a day before meals. I'm a bit concerned and curious; what exactly does this medication do?

1. *Acne treatment*: Primarily used to treat severe acne, including back acne, by reducing oil production and preventing clogged pores. 2. *Preventing scarring*: By treating acne, Restreta helps prevent scarring and hyperpigmentation. 3. *Reducing inflammation*: Isotretinoin has anti-inflammatory properties, which help reduce redness and inflammation associated with acne.

I'm really struggling with dark circles and marks under my eyes. I've tried all sorts of face creams, face packs, and washes, but nothing seems to help. My skin is this annoying mix of oily and combination, and it always just looks dull. Do you have any advice on tablets or creams I should try?

For dark circles and dull skin, you can try using a combination of Vitamin C serum and retinol cream. You can use a Vitamin C serum in the morning to brighten the skin and reduce dark circles, and a retinol cream at night to improve skin texture and reduce marks. Additionally, you can consider taking Vitamin C supplements to further boost skin health. Make sure to use a non-comedogenic moisturizer suitable for oily and combination skin to keep your skin hydrated.
