I'm really concerned about my skin pigmentation. I've been using a skin shine cream for about a month now, and while it did make my skin look paler, once I stopped using it, I noticed the pigmentation came back. Is it safe to continue using this cream for a longer period? Or is there a better way to handle this so my skin doesn't keep reverting when I stop?

I'm really not sure what this thing is, but it's been there for almost a month now. It doesn't hurt too much, but sometimes it gets bigger and then other times it gets smaller. I'm just not able to make it go away. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I recently saw a doctor for what might be a sebaceous cyst and got some meds for a few days. They said to check back if it improves, otherwise we might need a scan. But my wedding is on April 24th and I'm really worried is there any faster option like needle surgery or something to fix this quickly?

Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
