I'm curious about using Lumivoid skin lightening cream for pimple marks. Is it safe to use? And how long does it usually take to see results on those marks? Can you let me know more about it?

Lumivoid skin lightening cream contains hydroquinone which is commonly used to lighten dark areas on the skin such as age spots, melasma, and pimple marks. It is generally safe to use on pimple marks, but it is important to use it as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects. The time it takes for Lumivoid cream to work on pimple marks can vary from person to person. In general, you may start to see some improvement in the appearance of pimple marks within a few weeks of regular use. However, it may take several weeks to months to see significant results. It is important to be patient and consistent with the application of the cream for best results.

I've been really worried about something and could use some advice. During my teenage years, I used to dry masturbate a lot and often used soap as a lubricant since it was always available in the bathroom. Now, the skin on the head of my penis has become extremely dry. I haven't had any intercourse, but I constantly have to apply coconut oil and Vaseline several times a day to avoid it getting too dry. Also, I've noticed that I need to wait a bit before I can start peeing. Is there anything I can do to fully get rid of this issue?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
