Im 17 and I've got these white spots that arent super noticeable, but I really want to get rid of them. Would using Clinsol gel help with this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Clinsol gel contains Clindamycin, which is commonly used to treat acne. However, it may not be effective for treating white spots. I recommend consulting a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

View allI've noticed a dark horizontal line on my nose after I used to pick at the whiteheads there. It's been a year, and while it's faded slightly, it's still pretty visible. Should I be concerned? Do I need to get treatment for this, or will it just fade away over time?
It sounds like you may have developed post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation on your nose due to the picking and peeling of the skin. To help fade the dark line on your nose, you can consider using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and a corticosteroid. An example of such a cream is Tri-Luma, which can be applied once daily in the evening. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin and prevent further darkening. If the dark line persists or worsens, it's best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been using Melas cream for about 23 days, and now my face is turning red. What should I do to get rid of this redness? Is it normal, or should I stop using the cream? Would appreciate any advice!
To alleviate redness caused by Melas cream, discontinue use, apply a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer (e.g., Cetaphil, Aloe vera), and use a cool compress or an ice pack wrapped in a cloth to reduce inflammation; if redness persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice.
