View allI'm really confused about my skincare routine. I've been using Sabi glow skin lite for the last three months, but now my doctor says I should stop and switch to just sunscreen and moisturizer. I'm pretty sure if I skip those creams for even a couple of days, the black spots will come back. I've been seeing doctors for over four years about this. Will this ever get better? How long will it take to see some real improvement? I'm just so frustrated with this whole situation.
continue medications as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm feeling really worried about these pearly penile papules and I'm looking for some advice. Are there any home remedies or treatments you can suggest? Also, do I need any specific medicine to get rid of them?
Pearly penile papules (PPP) are harmless, but for aesthetic concerns, consider consulting a dermatologist for professional advice; some home remedies like tea tree oil, castor oil, and aloe vera gel may help reduce inflammation, but there's limited scientific evidence for their effectiveness; medical treatments like carbon dioxide laser therapy, cryotherapy, or radiosurgery may be recommended by a dermatologist, but over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are not typically advised for PPP removal.

Gel is considered better than a solution.
