For older scars like yours, besides laser treatment, you can consider using topical silicone gel sheets or silicone gel. These can help improve the appearance of the scar over time. Make sure to apply them as directed by the manufacturer.

I've noticed this pimple about 2 inches below my belly button and I'm kind of worried about what it could be. I'm including a photo as well. Any idea what might be going on?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I've had Fox Fordyce for 8 years and it's been hell with the constant itching only corticosteroid creams give me relief. Would surgically removing all my armpit sweat glands cure this condition? I'm desperate for a permanent solution since creams just manage symptoms.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with these small, white, hard bumps on my scalp for about a year and a half now. They're super itchy, and it's causing a lot of hair loss, which is really worrying me. At first, I thought it might be dandruff, but there's nothing flaky about it. I'm constantly scratching my scalp, and it's getting really frustrating. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

That could be fungal infection as this needs evaluation visit Dermatologist for appropriate management,do not attempt to scratch it or squeeze it.
