I'm dealing with an old cut scar on my left hand, and I'm really interested in figuring out how to remove it permanently. It's been there for 67 years and happened due to a cutter. Could you advise me on the best way to get rid of it?

I've been using Skinlite, and whenever I stop, my face seems to get darker. I'm really trying to quit it. Do you think it's safe to switch to Kojishine cream instead? I'm worried about the effects.

I keep struggling with acne on my face and back pretty much all year round. A friend mentioned I should try using MomateF cream. Is it safe or effective for back acne? What exactly does this cream do?

Momate-F cream contains Mometasone which is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation, redness, and swelling. It is primarily used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. However, it is not typically recommended for treating acne as it may not target the underlying causes of acne effectively. For acne on your back, I would recommend using a topical treatment containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid. These ingredients are more effective in treating acne by unclogging pores, reducing bacteria, and preventing new acne breakouts. You can try using Benzac AC gel on your back acne. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to cleanse the area thoroughly before applying the gel. Remember to patch test any new product on a small area of skin before applying it to larger areas to check for any adverse reactions.
