I keep struggling with acne on my face and back pretty much all year round. A friend mentioned I should try using MomateF cream. Is it safe or effective for back acne? What exactly does this cream do?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Momate-F cream contains Mometasone which is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation, redness, and swelling. It is primarily used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. However, it is not typically recommended for treating acne as it may not target the underlying causes of acne effectively. For acne on your back, I would recommend using a topical treatment containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid. These ingredients are more effective in treating acne by unclogging pores, reducing bacteria, and preventing new acne breakouts. You can try using Benzac AC gel on your back acne. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to cleanse the area thoroughly before applying the gel. Remember to patch test any new product on a small area of skin before applying it to larger areas to check for any adverse reactions.

I've been using Melaglow cream for a year, applying it every night and washing it off in the morning. My skin was glowing while I was using it, but now that I've stopped, my skin is completely pigmented. It used to be fair before I started using the cream, but now it's turned dark. Is there a way to get my natural skin fairness back? Would really appreciate some guidance on this.
It's possible to restore your skin tone, but it will take time and patience. Pigmentation changes can occur due to various reasons, like stopping a product or other factors. Focus on a gentle skincare routine with sunscreen, vitamin C serums, and exfoliation. If needed, consult a dermatologist for personalized treatment options like chemical peels or topical treatments. Stay consistent, and your skin can gradually improve.

I'm really worried about this genital wart around my anus. I started using Podowart after talking to my doctor, but now the whole area is swollen and has turned a whitish-red color. The wart still hasn't fallen off, and there's a weird rotten smell coming from the skin. Could this mean the wart virus is spreading? Is there an antibiotic I should use to prevent any infection? It's even making it hard for me to sit or go to the bathroom.
dermat opinion is adised.
