I'm really concerned about my underarm situation. Since I stopped waxing, there's been a little improvement in the darkness, but I'm not sure what to do next. Should I consider chemical peels or laser treatments for the best results? Hydroquinone didn't work for me. I'm just worried because my dermatologist suggested chemical peels but didnt do any tests beforehand. Can peels make the darkness worse?

chemical peeling would definitely work but laser treatment would show better result,follow your doctors advise because treatment modality depends on intensity and area involved for darkness.

I'm really struggling with growing my beard and moustache, and it's starting to worry me a bit. Could you give me some advice on what might help them grow in better? I'm just looking for something simple that could make a difference.
If you are looking to promote beard and mustache growth, you can consider using minoxidil solution 5%. Apply 1ml of minoxidil solution twice daily directly on the affected areas of the face. It may take several weeks to months to see visible results, so consistency is key. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals can also support hair growth.

I'm noticing some fat under my arms, and it's really noticeable and kind of bulging out. I'm not sure who to see about this. Should I be consulting a gynecologist or a dermatologist? What do you think?
To address this issue, you can consider using a topical fat reduction cream containing L-Carnitine. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for best results. Additionally, incorporating exercises targeting the underarm area, such as tricep dips and push-ups, can help tone and reduce fat in that area. Remember to maintain a healthy diet and stay hydrated to support your overall weight loss goals. If you have any underlying medical conditions or concerns, it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
