I'm dealing with a lot of acne scars all over my face, and the acne itself just won't stop. I've been using Betnovate N, which seems to be doing wonders for reducing the pimples, but the scars aren't budging at all. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about the scars?

For acne scars, consider using products with ingredients like retinoids, vitamin C, or niacinamide to promote skin healing and reduce pigmentation. For active acne, keep using Betnovate N as its helping, but also consult a dermatologist for long-term

I'm using permethrin cream for scabies and I've already applied it once over my body. Should I put it on again soon, or is it better to wait a few days before reapplying? Should it be applied continuously or is there a certain timeline to follow? I'm just not sure how often I should be using it.
