I've been dealing with some skin issues lately, like allergies and more pigmentation than usual. I'm 25, and my doctor suggested I try Kojivit Plus gel for the pigmentation that's been bothering me for the past couple of months. I'm curious if it's a good option for skin whitening too. Should I continue using this gel? Any advice would be really helpful!
If you havent experienced any major irritation or side effects, and your dermatologist has recommended it, continuing the use of Kojivit Plus Gel for pigmentation is likely safe. However, if you notice any signs of worsening irritation or allergy, or if you feel like it's not working after consistent use, I would recommend getting back in touch with your dermatologist to discuss alternative treatments or adjustments.

I'm looking for a permanent solution for skin whitening. I'm tired of using all these temporary fixes and would love to know if there's a lasting and effective method to get the result I'm looking for. Can you help guide me?
For permanent skin whitening, you can consider using topical creams containing hydroquinone in combination with tretinoin and corticosteroids. One such effective brand is Tri-Luma cream. It is usually applied once daily in the evening. However, it is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as prolonged use can have side effects. Additionally, using sunscreen with a high SPF is crucial to prevent darkening of the skin due to sun exposure.
