View allI'm really struggling with these dark spots on my face from pimples. Can you help me figure out how to reduce the pimples and get rid of the dark spots they leave behind?
Reducing Pimples* 1. *Maintain good hygiene*: Wash your face twice a day with a gentle cleanser. 2. *Use non-comedogenic products*: Choose products labeled "non-comedogenic" or "oil-free" to avoid clogging pores. 3. *Exfoliate regularly*: Exfoliate once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. 4. *Avoid picking or popping pimples*: This can lead to further inflammation and scarring. *Eliminating Dark Spots* 1. *Topical treatments*: Apply creams or serums containing ingredients like: - Hydroquinone (2%): Fades dark spots. - Retinoids: Promotes cell turnover and collagen production. - Niacinamide: Improves skin hyperpigmentation. - Vitamin C: Antioxidant properties help reduce dark spots. 2. *Chemical peels*: A dermatologist can perform chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and reduce dark spots. 3. *Microdermabrasion*: A non-invasive exfoliating treatment that can help reduce dark spots. 4. *Sun protection*: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily to prevent further darkening of spots.

I've been noticing some white spots forming on both my hands, and I'm wondering if it's because of all the washing lately due to the COVID-19 situation. Should I be concerned or is this something that will go away with time?
No need to worry stop practicing hand wash frequently,wash your hands when needed and use good moisturizer for the same

I've had multiple small lipomas on both hands for the past 23 years, with some on my stomach and chest too. About 12 of them hurt when pressed hard. New ones keep appearing, and some older ones are getting bigger. Every doctor I've seen says surgery is the only option, but there are so many and I'm worried about scarring. Is there a safe treatment that can stop new lipomas from forming?
excision is advised to the patient,also surgery opinion at apollo hospital for further tt.
