I noticed some milia on my eyelid a couple of months back and didn't really think much of it because I heard they're not harmful. But a few friends suggested I should see a dermatologist about it. I'm really curious about what kind of treatments are available and how much they might cost. Can you give me some advice on this?

Treatment for milia usually involves extraction by a dermatologist. They may use a sterile needle or a comedone extractor to remove the milia. In some cases, a topical retinoid cream like Retin-A may be prescribed to help prevent new milia from forming. The cost of treatment can vary depending on the dermatologist and your location

What are some skin-whitening tips for men like me? Will these changes be permanent? How long does it usually take to see results?

I've got these really small blade cut marks on my leg. They're not super noticeable, but I can't stop thinking about getting rid of them for good. Any ideas on how I can permanently remove them?

I'm noticing that the skin on either side of my nose is turning black, and it seems to be getting worse with each passing day. I'm really worried about this. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how I can make it stop or reduce it?

The blackening of the skin on both sides of your nose may be due to a condition called seborrheic dermatitis. I recommend using a topical antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected areas. In addition, you can use a mild steroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream once daily to reduce inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid picking or scratching at the skin. If the condition does not improve or worsens, please follow up with a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
