I'm using Biluma cream for the past couple of days, and it's causing red patches on my cheeks. Is this cream actually good for dark circles and skin whitening? How should I be using it? I'm a bit concerned and could really use some advice.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Biluma cream contains ingredients like Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Niacinamide, which can help with skin brightening and dark circles.
Red Patches on Cheeks:
- Allergic reaction: Stop using the cream immediately.
- Skin sensitivity: Reduce frequency of application or dilute the cream with a moisturizer.
Tips for Using Biluma Cream:
- Patch test: Apply a small amount on a discreet area before using on your face.
- Start with a low frequency: Apply every alternate day and gradually increase frequency.
- Use a small amount: Avoid over-application, which can irritate the skin.
- Moisturize: Apply a gentle moisturizer after using Biluma cream to soothe the skin.
If the red patches persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

View allI've noticed some white patchesfirst on my chin and then by the side of my headand now those areas have stopped growing hair. It seems a bit like a fungal infection, especially since I had similar white spots around my neck last year. Can you recommend a cream or shampoo that might help? I'm starting to get a bit concerned.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection causing white patches and hair loss. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected areas. In addition, you can use a ketoconazole shampoo like Nizoral twice a week to help treat the fungal infection on the scalp. Make sure to follow the instructions on the packaging for both products.

Can I use Dermadew soap on my face? I've been struggling with acne there. When I had back acne, this soap really worked miracles and cleared it up. Now that the acne's on my face, I'm wondering if it would be safe and effective to use it there too. On top of that, Im dealing with atopic dermatitis on my face as well. Could using the soap worsen this skin issue?
yes continue the medications as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm curious about this change in my treatment plan. My new doctor switched me from minoxidil to proanagen solution and kera XL serum. She mentioned it's to avoid dependency on minoxidil. Does this sound like the right approach to you?
This can be a reasonable approach to prevent dependency on minoxidil. Proanagen solution contains minoxidil along with other ingredients to promote hair growth, while Kera XL serum is likely a hair care product to support overall hair health. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and use these medications as prescribed. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, please consult your doctor for further guidance.
