I'm really concerned about my skin tone and I've been thinking about trying a whitening cream for my face. There's so many options out there, and I'm not sure which one would be the most effective or safest. Can you give me any recommendations or advice on what to look for in a good face whitening cream? Also, are there any potential side effects I should be aware of?

I've got these lesions all over my body and they're really itchy. Plus, I've developed some thick blisters on my hands and palms. I tried using permethrin cream and taking ivermectin 12, but nothing seems to be helping. What could this be, and what should I do next?

I'm really curious to know if CO2 laser treatment truly works. Can you tell me what the side effects are and what precautions I need to take before and after the procedure? How long does it usually take to heal? And is this treatment actually good for getting rid of acne scars?
