I'm considering switching from Skinlite cream, which I stopped using after my dermatologist suggested Botanica 3D serum. I saw good results with the serum, but now another dermatologist has recommended Depiwhite cream for skin lightening. I'm worried about the safety of using Depiwhite and whether I might experience the same side effects as with Skinlite, since it had steroids. Do you think Depiwhite is safe, or is there another good skin lightening cream you'd suggest?

Depiwhite cream is a safe option for skin lightening as it does not contain steroids like Skinlite cream. You can use Depiwhite cream for skin lightening. Another good skin lightening cream option is Kojic acid cream. You can apply Depiwhite cream or Kojic acid cream on the affected areas of the skin twice a day for best results.

I'm really concerned about finding an effective full body fairness treatment. I've tried so many different methods, but the results only last for a few days. Can you suggest something longer-lasting or maybe explain why this keeps happening?

I tried all the way to get the results. Some treatment giving result for some days. For full body fairness treatment, you can consider using a combination of topical creams containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and corticosteroids. You can use Kojic acid based soap for bathing. Additionally, you can take oral antioxidants like Vitamin C and Vitamin E. It is important to use sunscreen with a high SPF during the day to protect your skin from further damage. Consult a dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan and dosage recommendations.

I'm wondering if I can use tretinoin every night and then salicylic acid in the morning to help with pimples, scars, and maybe even for anti-aging benefits. Is this a good routine, or should I be concerned about any potential issues with this combination?
