I'm dealing with seborrheic dermatitis on my face, and my doctor recommended a glycolic acid peel with 20% concentration. I'm wondering if this treatment will actually help improve my condition. Can you let me know if this could be effective or if there are any other options I should consider?

I've been dealing with some pretty bad acne and breakouts on my face, shoulders, and back since I had chickenpox about three years ago. Before that, I never really had any issues with acne, so I'm super frustrated. I went to a bunch of doctors and tried different creams and tablets, but nothing seems to work. It's been a few years now, and every time one breakout heals, another one pops up. Could this be connected to the way the chickenpox was treated back then, or is there something else going on? I'm really worried because my face is a mess right now and I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice or solutions for dealing with acne after chickenpox?

I'm really concerned because I have these white birthmarks that are spreading slowly, and I feel like they're making me look unattractive. My skin is of medium complexion, and I'm thinking about whitening my entire body. Can anyone tell me how long that might take if I want to avoid surgery? And what's the average cost for doing something like this?
