I'm considering using Brite lite cream for skin whitening, but I'm a bit worried about its safety. Does it have any side effects I should be aware of? Also, I've heard about Ethiglo plus tablets and I'm curious if they actually work. Can you give me some advice on this?

Can you explain the difference between epidermal and dermal hyperpigmentation? How can I tell them apart? Also, are there any treatments that can fully fade stubborn dermal hyperpigmentation? I'm really curious about how deep PIH goes under the skin.

I'm looking for a minoxidil product at 5% strength that doesn't have alcohol or propylene glycol. The one I'm using right now is in lotion form, but it's causing some really bad itching. Do you have any recommendations for something else I could try?

-You can try a *minoxidil 5% foam* instead of lotion, as its alcohol- and propylene glycol-free, reducing the chances of itching. If irritation persists, consult a dermatologist for alternatives.
