I'm really confused about the order in which I should apply my skincare medications for acne. I've got three different ones: Lotion Doux moisturizing lotion, UV Doux sunscreen, and Aziderm for dark spots. The Aziderm feels really drying on my skin, so I'm not sure if it should go first or last. Could you help me figure out the right order to apply them all?

I've been dealing with keratosis pilaris for nearly a decade, and I've tried everything, including chemical peels. It's all over my shoulders, legs, thighs, and buttocks. I'm looking for a doctor who can help reduce its appearance. Plus, I've started experiencing a lot of hair fall and have lost a significant amount of hair. Any advice on managing these issues?

Consider consulting a dermatologist specializing in keratosis pilaris, who may recommend customized treatments such as microdermabrasion, laser therapy, or intense pulsed light (IPL) to reduce visibility, and also investigate the hair loss, potentially related to keratosis pilaris or an underlying condition, to develop a comprehensive treatment plan addressing both concerns.
