I'm 21 and dealing with oily skin and a dark brown complexion. I've got pimples, blackhead scars, and these big pores from acne. Right now, I'm using Contimycin, Clinagel, and Garnier Men oil clear face wash. I'm really hoping to get whiter skin and finally get rid of this acne. Do you have any suggestions or advice on what I should try next?

To address your acne concerns and skin tone, consider adding the following to your routine: a salicylic acid-based cleanser, a benzoyl peroxide-based spot treatment, a niacinamide serum for skin brightening, and a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, while consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice and adjusting your current products as needed.

I've had a dark line across my nose for more than 5 years now. I've tried several skin brightening creams suggested by dermatologists, but nothing seems to work. It's really frustrating. Can you offer any other advice or treatments that might help?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a condition called melasma, which causes dark patches on the skin. In addition to skin brightening creams, you can also consider using a combination of hydroquinone, tretinoin, and a corticosteroid cream. One option is to use a cream containing 4% hydroquinone, 0.05% tretinoin, and 0.01% fluocinolone acetonide. Apply a thin layer of this cream to the affected area once daily in the evening. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening.

I've been dealing with some really bad dandruff lately. It's not just in my scalp but the whole nose area too, which has turned red, hard, and dry. The scales that come off are either white or yellowish, and they seem kind of oily. Plus, I've got these painful boils on my nose that just won't go away. And there's a lot of itching and hairfall. I'm really worried about all thiswhat could be causing it, and how can I get some relief?
