I have these stubborn stitch marks on my face and they're really bothering me. What's the best way to get rid of them completely? Would laser treatment or surgery work better, or should I try cosmetic creams or gels first? Any recommendations for specific products that might help?

To minimize the appearance of stitch marks on the face, a combination of topical treatments, professional interventions, and good skincare practices can be helpful. While surgical scar revision or laser treatments may offer more significant results, starting with topical creams and gels is a good first step.

I'm noticing a color difference between my face, neck, and body. My body appears fairer than my face and neck. Could this be due to tanning or something else? I've tried a few bleaches and facials, but nothing seems to change. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm dealing with this spider pee rash that came back on my upper thigh. The first time I got it, my doctor friend told me to use Clobeng a few times a day, and luckily there wasn't any itching then, so I just went with that treatment. But now it's showing up again and causing irritation. I've started using Clobeng once more, but I'm concerned it might not go away entirely this time. How can I get rid of it for good?

Along with topical lotion you have to use oral Antifungal medications,for which visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment, personal hygiene is more important for such conditions.

I've been dealing with really dry skin on my face and some pretty intense dark circles. There's also this dark line across my nose and a patch near it that just won't go away. I'm already on a six-month treatment for pimples that my doctor assured would help with the dark spots too, but I'm not actually seeing any change. What should I do?
