I'm wondering if there are any side effects to using this combo for treating dark circles and uneven skin tone. How long is it safe to use, and when might I start seeing results? I've also been dealing with skin eczema, so I'm curious about any extra care or routines I should follow after stopping the treatment, assuming it's both safe and effective. Can you help with some guidance on this?

View allI'm really worried about the effects of pollution on my skin. I've been noticing that my skin is darkening really fast, and I'm thinking about using salon detan and bleach treatments to help with it. Are these treatments actually effective, or could they potentially be harmful to my skin in the long run? I'm looking for some advice on what might be the best way to handle this issue.
Detan and bleach treatments are popular salon services aimed at reducing skin darkening and hyperpigmentation. However, it's essential to weigh their effectiveness against potential risks. Detan Treatment Detan treatments typically involve a combination of exfoliating agents, like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), and brightening agents, such as vitamin C or licorice extract. These treatments can help: 1. Exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. 2. Reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and dark spots. 3. Improve skin texture and tone. However, detan treatments may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with sensitive skin. Potential side effects include: 1. Skin irritation or redness 2. Dryness or flakiness 3. Increased sun sensitivity Bleach Treatment Bleach treatments, on the other hand, involve the application of a strong chemical agent to lighten the skin. These treatments can be harsh and may lead to: 1. Skin irritation, redness, or burns 2. Dryness, flakiness, or skin cracking 3. Increased risk of infections or scarring 4. Uneven skin tone or patchiness It's essential to note that bleach treatments can be damaging, especially if done frequently or without proper care. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends avoiding bleach treatments altogether.

I'm dealing with allergies and these really bothersome skin rashes. Plus, I've got these painful oozing bumps on my scalp. It seems like I react to a lot of good stuff and it gets worse in hot, humid weather. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Allergies and skin rashes along with oozing scalp bumps can be indicative of a condition such as atopic dermatitis or contact dermatitis. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using over-the-counter antihistamines like Claritin (loratadine) or Zyrtec (cetirizine) to manage your allergies. For the skin rashes, you can apply hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation. Additionally, for the oozing scalp bumps, you may benefit from using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide, such as Nizoral shampoo, to help with scalp inflammation. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication.

I've been experiencing this strange sensation during the evenings, like insects or something are crawling on my skin, especially around my stomach and back. It's really itchy and doesn't seem to go away. I'm trying to figure out what might be causing it and why it happens. Could you provide some insight?
Psorolin B ointment is advised for local application, also take tab allegra 120 mg orally for 2 weeks, if any side-effects dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.
