Question

I'm 25 and have been using benzoyl peroxide for my acne for the past three months, both the cream and the face wash. Lately, I've started noticing some fine lines or wrinkles near my cheeks. Could the benzoyl peroxide be causing this, or is there something else I should be concerned about? I'm just a bit worried since I'm still quite young for wrinkles. What should I do?

Question

I'm wondering if Mederma could actually help with some scars and old burn marks I've got on my thighs. They've been there a while, and I've just got these persistent spots that won't seem to go away. Do you think this cream would work for something like that?
