I'm dealing with pimple holes and black marks on my face and I'm really worried about them. Are there any treatments that can help clear these issues up? I'd love to know if there's anything effective to try.

I'm noticing that the skin around my thigh and under the testicles is changing color, sometimes getting darker and at other times looking pale. I've been using Candid B cream and baby powder to keep the area dry, but it doesn't seem to be improving. Should I be worried about these changes in skin color? Is there something else I should be doing?

I'm really curious about how glycolic acid cream works, especially if I'm already using benzoyl peroxide 2.5% for my acne. My skin is pretty sensitive, so I'm worried about potential reactions. What's the best way to use these products together to avoid irritating my skin? Any tips would be super helpful!

Glycolic acid cream works by exfoliating the skin, unclogging pores, and promoting skin cell turnover, which can help improve acne. When used in conjunction with benzoyl peroxide 2.5%, it can enhance the effectiveness of the treatment by further exfoliating the skin and reducing inflammation. For sensitive skin, it is important to start with a lower concentration of glycolic acid (around 5-8%) and gradually increase the frequency of use as tolerated. It is recommended to apply a small amount of glycolic acid cream to clean, dry skin once every other day initially, and then increase to daily use if there is no irritation. Always follow up with a moisturizer and use a sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid, as it can increase sun sensitivity.
