I'm using Ayu Hina hair dye and I'm concerned if it's safe for me. I've got dark spots on both my cheeks, and you previously suggested using Cutiyt and Obril cream. The spots are still there though, so what should I do next?

Ayu hina hair dye is generally considered safe for use. However, it is always recommended to do a patch test before applying it to your entire scalp to check for any allergic reactions. If you are still experiencing dark spots on your cheeks despite using Cutiyt and Obril cream, you may consider using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and a corticosteroid. One such option is Melalite Forte cream, to be applied once daily at night on the affected areas. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening.

I had chicken pox around two months ago and now I'm left with some holes on my face - like on my forehead, nose, and cheeks. I'm really worried about how to get my skin back to how it was before. Is it even possible to get rid of these marks, and if so, how long might it take? I'm feeling quite anxious about it all.

Kozicare cream is advised.Side-effects include itching and hypersensitivity reactions

I'm dealing with excess body heat all year round, and it's really affecting my skinit gets super dry and darker. I'm already drinking a lot of water, but nothing seems to help. Do you have any simple home remedies or advice for this? I'm really curious about how I can manage this better.

To reduce excess body heat and alleviate dry, dark skin, try these home remedies: drink cooling drinks like coconut water, cucumber juice, or peppermint tea; eat cooling foods like yogurt, cucumber, and mint; apply cooling packs or cold compresses to your pulse points; practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga; wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing; take cool showers or baths; and consider incorporating Ayurvedic herbs like triphala, neem, or aloe vera into your routine, in addition to drinking plenty of water.
