I'm a 22-year-old woman living in a small town in Maharashtra. I've struggled with acne in the past, and while it's under control now, I'm left with scars on my face. Do you have any easy and quick home remedies for fading these acne scars?

View allI'm a bit worried about taking isotroin 5mg daily for my acne since my dermatologist prescribed it for a whole month. What side effects should I be aware of? I'm just not sure about taking it for that long. Can anyone help with some advice?
Isotroin is a brand name for isotretinoin, which is commonly used to treat severe acne. Some possible side effects of isotretinoin include dry skin, chapped lips, dry eyes, nosebleeds, muscle aches, and increased sensitivity to the sun. It can also cause changes in mood, such as depression or aggressive tendencies. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and report any concerning symptoms

Recently, I got hit on my nose with a mobile phone, and it left a scar after healing. My dermatologist recommended Suderma Scar reduction gel, and I've been using it for two months now, but I haven't noticed any improvements. I'm getting a bit concerned about the scar not fading. Is there something else I should be doing or trying?

I've got these really stubborn dark circles under my eyes, and they're not going away. Also, my upper lip is super dark, and my lip line is nearly black. I'm wondering if I might have melasma because there's noticeable pigmentation all over my facelike on my nose, around my mouth, eyelids, under my eyes, the sides of my cheeks, and my temples. Then there are these leftover dark spots from past acne, and new ones still popping up with ongoing acne, but I can kind of manage the acne when I stick to the right diet. The pigmentation is what's really bugging me though. I'm trying to avoid any advanced treatments, but I'm open to medication and following a routine. Right now, I just cleanse, tone, use eye cream, serum, both day and night creams, and sunscreen. Yet, it doesn't seem to be helping much, even though I'm consistently applying sunscreen. What would you suggest I do?
pigmentation might be due to various causes ,once get your Thyroid levels and blood sugars checked and visit Dermatologist for appropriate management,the products you are using might not be appropriate get a detailed advice from Dermatologist.
