View allI'm really concerned about the pigmentation on my face since I stopped using the No Scar cream. Its really red and Im not sure what to do to make it better. Are there any treatments you would recommend to help with these side effects? Id really appreciate your advice.
To alleviate face pigmentation and redness caused by No Scar cream, apply a topical treatment like Kojic acid, vitamin C serum, or niacinamide cream, and consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice, laser therapy, or chemical peels to help reduce hyperpigmentation and promote even skin tone.

I'm really worried about my pemphigus vulgaris. It's just that I keep getting these boosters all over my body, and it's so frustrating. Is there a specific diet that could help manage this condition better or any tips on how to control it overall?

I'm looking for a good skin brightening cream for my face that doesnt have any side effects. Right now, Im using a glycolic acid cream with a concentration of 6. Do you think this could lead to any side effects?
Glycolic acid cream 6% can cause side effects such as redness, irritation, dryness, and peeling of the skin, especially if not used properly. It is important to use sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid to prevent sun sensitivity. As for a skin brightening cream without side effects, you can try using "Kojic acid cream" in the evening. Start by applying a small amount every other night to see how your skin reacts, and gradually increase to nightly use if tolerated well. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.
