I'm dealing with a melasma issue on my skin and I'm not sure what to do. Could you tell me which cream would work better for this, Lumacip Plus or Tri Luma? I'm a little overwhelmed with options and really need your advice.

I've been using elocon cream for a couple of months just on my chin, and now out of nowhere, I've got like 100 pimples all over my chin and jawline, and it's spreading across my lower face. I gave retin a a shot, but it actually made the acne worse. I also tried some antibiotic pills, but they didn't help. Now, I'm using fusidin cream 2 antibiotics, still no luck. It's been over 10 days and things aren't getting better. I just started using acutret, hoping it'll help. Could this breakout be a side effect of the elocon cream? If so, how long might it last, and what can I do to improve the situation?
Elocon cream (mometasone) can cause skin issues like acne, especially with prolonged use. This reaction might be a rebound effect or steroid-induced acne. Considering you've already tried various treatments, it's essential to consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance. They may recommend alternative treatments or adjust your current regimen. In the meantime, consider the following: 1. Stop using Elocon cream. 2. Continue Acutret (isotretinoin) as directed by your dermatologist. 3. Maintain good skincare hygiene and use non-comedogenic products.

I've been dealing with acne since I was 15, and it's gotten worse now that I'm 20. I tried some Ayurvedic treatments, but they didn't really help. A dermatologist recommended clarithromycin and tretinoin cream, which showed minimal improvement for a bit, but now my acne's back and even worse. Is there any real, lasting solution out there?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
