I'm 26 and my skin is really dry. I've noticed some wrinkles and nasolabial folds appearing, which seem quite noticeable now. I want to avoid filler injections, so I'm looking for ways to improve my skin with just medicines and external treatments like oils, creams, and moisturizers. I already switched from soap to a Nivea body wash, and from using Clean & Clear facewash to an AHA facewash. Lately, I've been using Aquastop sunscreen. I'm also trying a lemon sugar scrub for my dry skin and wrinkles and then applying a thick layer of castor oil. I've been doing this for about five days. Am I on the right track with this routine? Are there any specific creams, moisturizers, or serums that could help make my skin look more radiant and address these issues?

I've got some really bad boils and I'm not sure what to do. Should I see a surgeon or maybe a dermatologist? I'm kind of worried and just want to make sure I go to the right specialist. Any advice?

You should consult with a dermatologist for the treatment of severe boils. They specialize in skin conditions and can provide you with the appropriate care. In the meantime, you can use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and apply it to the affected area twice a day to help with healing.

I've noticed a discolored spot on my lower lip where my teeth usually bite it. Do you think this could be vitiligo, or is it just because of the biting? I'm a bit worried and not sure what to make of it.
