I'm hoping to get some advice on using erytop cream for my acne. Should I be applying it in the morning or at night? Also, I'm 22 and just a bit concerned about any side effects if I use it for a long time. What's your take on that?

For acne treatment with Erytop cream, it is usually recommended to apply it at night before bedtime. Cleanse your face before applying a thin layer of Erytop cream on the affected areas. As for long term use, Erytop cream may cause side effects such as dryness, redness, peeling, or irritation of the skin. It is important to use a good moisturizer and sunscreen during the day while using Erytop cream to minimize these side effects.

I've been diagnosed with scalp psoriasis, and I'm seeing some dry red patches. My doctor prescribed some ointments and vitamin tablets, but I've kind of forgotten what exactly I'm supposed to do. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Momate S cream on my scalp because it's really dry and patchy. Could you offer some advice on this?

I'm really worried because after using Cosmolite cream, my face turned black. I've been dealing with a lot of skin issues since then. I've seen several dermatologists but nothing has helped. Facials haven't worked either. I now have blackheads, pigmentation, and dark circles. What can I do to fix all of this?
