I have white patches on my forehead and feet and I'm currently using a UVB lamp for PUVA treatment at home. How long will it take to see improvement in my vitiligo and will these white marks fade completely? Are there any surgical options to treat vitiligo and are they completely safe?

I've got a bunch of sebaceous cysts on my scrotum, like six of them. I'm thinking of getting them surgically removed. What kind of risks should I be aware of? Also, any idea on how much it might cost to get this done in Bangalore? If you know of any good doctors or hospitals I should consider, I'd really appreciate the suggestions!
I'm so sorry to hear you're dealing with multiple sebaceous cysts on your scrotum. Getting them removed via surgery is a great step, but it's essential to be aware of the potential risks involved. Risks associated with sebaceous cyst removal surgery: - Infection - Scarring - Temporary numbness or tenderness - Recurrence of the cyst As for the surgery cost in Bangalore, it can range from 20,000 to 40,000, with an average cost of 35,000. The cost may vary depending on factors such as the size and number of cysts, the location of the cysts, the method of removal, and the hospital or clinic you choose.

I've been struggling with acne and oily skin for years now, and it's gotten to the point where I just really want to have acne-free, glowing skin. I've noticed small holes on my face too. Do you have any advice or treatments that could help with these concerns? I'm feeling pretty frustrated with my skin situation and would love to know if there's something I could try.
For acne and oily skin, you can try using a combination of topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid-based products. You can also consider using a retinoid cream to help with acne and improve skin texture. Additionally, oral medications like oral antibiotics or isotretinoin may be prescribed by a doctor for severe cases. To improve the appearance of small holes on your face (which may be due to acne scars or enlarged pores), treatments like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy can be beneficial.
