I'm really worried because I used hydroquinone cream for a couple of years, and ever since I stopped, my skin has been getting darker and more dull every day. Do you have any advice on how I can get my normal skin color back?

I've been dealing with this weird reaction tiny itchy red bumps after using fast relief on my left knee. So I switched to Volini spray, but it gave me rashes on my right leg. Any idea what's causing these skin issues? And do you know of a pain relief ointment that's maybe a bit gentler or less allergenic? I've been applying aloe gel to soothe the rashes and the bumps have gotten better, but the itching is still really bothering me. What can I do about it?

I've had these burns on my face from hot oil spills for about two months now, and the marks just aren't going away. I've tried different creams, but nothing seems to work. What should I do?

For the marks left on your face, you can try using a cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream. Apply a thin layer on the affected areas once daily at night. Additionally, you can also use a cream with tretinoin, such as Retin-A cream, to help improve the texture of the skin.
