I've always had genetically dark lips and have tried all sorts of home remedies, but nothing seems to work. I've also used several prescribed medications, but my lips havent lightened up. I'm curious about the Q switch ND YAG laser treatment is this something that could actually help with my problem of naturally dark lips? Would love to hear if it's effective for this issue.

I'm dealing with pimples that won't go away, and they're causing this reddish sensation and a bit of burning. I've heard about using RetinoA Tretinoin Cream for this, but I'm not sure if it's really good for these recurring pimples. Is it effective, or could it make the redness and burning worse? What should I expect if I start using it?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've got oily skin, but fortunately, I don't have any pimples. I'm looking for a facewash that would be suitable for my skin type. Do you have any recommendations?

I recommend using "Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser". Use it twice a day, in the morning and evening, for best results.
