I'm dealing with a situation here where I've been using adaferin gel for an hour every night and rejuglow face wash after getting advice from my doctor for my acne. But now, after a week, my acne's really flared up, and my skin's super dry, with itchy patches around my nose, mouth, and eyes. It's so dry, and even when I try to put on a moisturizer or use rose water, it burns. Am I doing something wrong, or is there something else I should try?

I've been using Fucibet cream since 2010, and every time I try to stop, I start having issues like itchy red spots on my skin, some bumpiness, and my eyes start watering a lot. I'm seeing a homeopathic practitioner, but it hasn't solved the problem yet. Could you suggest a good homeopathic doctor who might be able to help with this?

In summary, it's important to stop using the steroid-based cream gradually, moisturize, and possibly seek additional treatment options, including a combination of homeopathic remedies and dermatological care, to support your skin in healing.

Yes.

Is it true that I might notice more hair falling out when I first start using it? I'd love to know your thoughts on this because I'm hesitant to try it if that's the case. Can you help clear this up for me?

Yes, it is the side-effects of the medication.Continue all the medications a advised by the dermatologist..
