I'm curious about using kojic acid cream for skin whitening. Could you suggest any specific brands? Also, are there any side effects I should be aware of?

I've been using Faiza cream for about six months, but after I stopped, my face broke out with pimples and acne, and it's gotten way oilier. I'm really worried about this. How can I recover from these issues and work towards getting fairer skin? Can you please help me?

To help with the pimples, acne, and oily skin, you can try using a gentle cleanser containing salicylic acid to unclog pores and reduce oiliness. Additionally, a topical retinoid cream like Retin-A can help with acne and promote skin cell turnover. To lighten your skin, you can consider using a cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid, but make sure to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

I'm using aziderm 10 for my acne spots and I'm a bit worried. Could this cream make my skin darker? I've been hearing mixed things and would love some clarity on it.

I'm really struggling with an issue that's been bothering me for the last six months. I've got this persistent itch in the area below my buttocks, and I've tried using Dermiford cream and Btex, but nothing seems to work. The itch just keeps coming back. I even tried a home remedy with tulsi leaves, but that didn't help either. Could you please offer me some guidance on what to do?

Try an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
