I'm looking for a vitamin C serum that's good for acne-prone and oily skin. I really want something that can brighten my complexion but won't clog my pores. Any recommendations?

View allI'm really stressed about my upcoming wedding because of my skin tone. I've tried various treatments from skin doctors, but nothing seems to work permanently. Is there a treatment out there that can help with permanent skin whitening? I'm feeling quite overwhelmed and would appreciate any advice.
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I've had these black spots around my stomach for quite some time, probably around 23 months now. Initially, I thought they'd just fade away if I ignored them, but they're still there. There are about 8 of them, and they didn't start as pimples or anythingthey just appeared as black spots. Should I be worried about this or is there something that can help get rid of them?
Possible Causes 1. Melasma: Hormonal changes or sun exposure can cause melanin deposits, leading to black spots. 2. Hyper-pigmentation: Inflammation or skin injuries can cause an increase in melanin production, resulting in dark spots. 3. Skin tags: Small, benign growths can appear as black spots. 4. Seborrheic keratoses: Benign growths that can appear as black spots, especially in areas with high sun exposure. 5. Dermatosis papulosa nigra: A benign condition characterized by dark, raised spots. What to Do 1. Consult a dermatologist: Get a professional diagnosis to determine the cause of the black spots. 2. Skin examination: A dermatologist will examine your skin to determine the underlying cause. 3. Treatment options: Depending on the diagnosis, treatment options may include topical creams, laser therapy, or removal of skin tags or growths. Self-Care 1. Protect your skin from the sun: Use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to prevent further darkening of the spots. 2. Maintain good skin hygiene: Keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection.
