I had a chemical peel on my face recently from a dermatologist, and now I've developed lichen planus. Could the peeling be the reason for it? I haven't taken any medications or done anything else that might have triggered this. I'm pretty concerned. What could be going on here?

I've been getting lots of tiny pimples around my nose and chin area. I think my skin has become addicted to Skinlite cream. A general physician recommended Dermadew Glow and Tab Celine 500 mg, but I'm not sure if I should be using these products since hes not a dermatologist. What do you think? Should I try them out, or should I be consulting a specialist first?

Yes you can use it no problem,if its becoming worse,visit dermatologistm for appropriate management

I've been using Melacare for a long time, but then I started traveling a lot for work between Pune and Mumbai, and my skin is now completely sunburned and darker. I used to be fair, but now my skin is almost black, and it's a lot. Can I start using Melacare again? Will that help me get my skin back to how it was before? I'm really worried about showing my face to anyone right now and could really use your advice.
