I'm really worried because both of my hands have turned black due to macular amyloidosis. I've been seeing a doctor for this, but none of the creams they prescribed have worked. Is there any other treatment option available, like laser, that might help?

I've been dealing with a burn I got about four months ago, and the doctors mentioned it was a first-degree burn. The healing process went alright, but now Im stuck with this nasty scar on my arm that's really bothering me. The skin in that area doesnt seem to have an even tone, and the outer layer is darker. Could you suggest any products to help even out the skin tone and possibly recommend a good scar cream? I'm just looking for some guidance here.

I'm dealing with chickenpox and the scabs have dried, but they haven't started falling off yet. I scratched a few of the blisters earlier and I'm really worried they'll turn into scars. Should I wait until I'm fully recovered to see a dermatologist, or do you think I should make an appointment sooner to prevent any marks?

You can wait until the scabs have fallen off and the skin has fully healed before consulting a dermatologist. However, if you've scratched the blisters, it's best to consult a dermatologist sooner to minimize the risk of scarring. They can assess the affected areas and provide guidance on: 1. Topical treatments to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 2. Scar prevention and management strategies. Schedule an appointment within the next 7-10 days to ensure timely intervention.
