I'm 15 and dealing with some mild acne and scars. I've been using benzoyl peroxide already, but Im curious if adding hyaluronic acid to my routine would be good for my skin. Could it help, or should I be careful?

I've been dealing with a fungal issue from a couple of years ago that cleared up with treatment. Now, the skin on my inner thigh is darkened, and when I rub it, black dirt seems to come off. I'm also a bit overweight. Is this discoloration a leftover from the infection, or is it possibly from my weight? What can I do to lighten the skin again?

The dark skin in the inner thigh area is likely due to a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with obesity. To help improve the dark skin in the inner thigh area, you can try the following: 1. Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise. 2. Keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. 3. Use a medicated cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to lighten the dark skin. Apply it as directed by your doctor. 4. Consider using an exfoliating scrub to help remove dead skin cells and lighten the area. 5. Consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options, such as laser therapy or chemical peels, if needed. Remember to continue practicing good hygiene and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to prevent further skin issues.
