I recently had dengue fever, and after I recovered, I've been dealing with this really annoying skin issue on my thighs. It's super itchy, and I'm not sure what's going on. Is this a common side effect after dengue, or should I be worried about something else? What can I do to relieve the itching?

View allI'm really worried about losing cheek fat, and it's been happening for the past five years. I had really bad acne vulgaris and, after two years of treatment, I've managed to get it under control. But now, I've noticed a big loss in my cheek fat. Is there anything I can do to get it back? I've heard about fat injections but don't know much about them. Can you explain how they work, how much they might cost, and any pros and cons?

I'm really struggling with this skin issue that's been bothering me since I was thirteen. I have this mole that's the same color as my skin, which I tried treating with baking soda, but that was too awkward to keep up with, so I just covered it with a bandage. Eventually, it fell off, but now there's another oneit's bigger and swollen, around 2 cm on my jaw. I've been trying homeopathic medicine which seems to be helping a bit with the swelling, but it's still there. A doctor suggested laser treatment, but I'm really scared of that. I've been using coconut oil as a home remedy, but I'm concerned about the scar it might leave. Could you advise on any natural treatment options that might help with both the mole and its scar?
I would recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone to help lighten the scar left by the mole. You can apply it twice a day for several weeks to see improvement. Additionally, you can try using silicone gel sheets to help flatten and fade the scar. As for the mole itself, since it has reduced in size with homeopathic treatment, you can continue applying coconut oil regularly to see if it further helps in reducing it. If you want to explore other options, you can consider consulting a dermatologist who may suggest other topical treatments or procedures like cryotherapy to remove the mole.

I'm dealing with seborrheic dermatitis on my face, and my doctor recommended a glycolic acid peel with 20% concentration. I'm wondering if this treatment will actually help improve my condition. Can you let me know if this could be effective or if there are any other options I should consider?
