I'm really worried after using Faiza cream for 3 months. It did clear up my pimples and dark marks, and my skin looks so much fairer, which was great at first. But then I read online that it might have side effects like skin cancer, and now I'm freaking out. I'm thinking about stopping the cream, but I'm scared if that might cause any problems. Can you help me figure out what to do?

I've noticed that the head of my penis has been affected by what looks like a fungus. There are tiny white dots on it, and the top skin seems to be slit or cut with small cuts. It's got me worried. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I'm 25 and starting to notice my hair turning grey, and it's really stressing me out. I tried CB 100 and KeraBlak tablets for about 3 months, but unfortunately, I didn't see any improvement. I'm feeling a bit lost about what I should do next. Is there something else you would recommend? Are there other reasons this could be happening at my age?

Capsule evion and biotin capsulses are advised for 3 months orally.

My face is totally covered with blackheads and whiteheads, except on my forehead. I scrub twice every day because otherwise I feel too self-conscious to go out. I've tried tons of dermatological products, including the PERNEX my last dermatologist suggested, but nothing has worked. Do you know anything that might actually help? I'm feeling really frustrated about this situation.

It sounds like you have tried various dermatological products without success. In this case, you can try using a topical retinoid cream such as Differin (adapalene) gel. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas once daily at night. Additionally, you can use a salicylic acid cleanser like Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. Use it twice daily to help unclog pores and prevent new blackheads and whiteheads from forming. Remember to moisturize your skin as retinoids can be drying. Be patient as it may take a few weeks to see improvement.
