I've been dealing with acanthosis nigricans for years and I'm really looking for some advice. Are there any Ayurvedic treatments or remedies that might help improve my condition? I'm curious to know if there's something specific in Ayurveda that could make a difference. Would appreciate any insights you might have.

My skin just keeps getting darker lately and I'm really starting to worry. I've been trying a bunch of things like blood purifying medicines, loads of cosmetics, drinking a ton of water, and staying out of the sun and heat, but nothing seems to work. It's getting pretty frustrating because I just want my natural complexion back. Could you suggest something that actually helps?

I've been told to try Dermadew soap for improving my skin tone, but I'm 19 and have really sensitive skin. Is this the right choice for me, or should I consider other options?

Dermadew soap can help with hydration and mild skin brightening, but for sensitive skin, it's essential to do a patch test first to avoid irritation. Gentle products with calming ingredients like aloe vera or oatmeal might suit you better. Avoid harsh soaps and focus on sunscreen, as sun protection is crucial for even skin tone and sensitivity management.

I'm really worried about my wife's stretch marks on her inner thighs. She's been using Stretchrid cream recommended by a dermatologist, but its only shown a little improvement. She took an Unwanted 72 contraceptive pill in September 2019, and she's noticed a small weight gain recently, which might be linked to the stretch marks. Can you suggest the right treatment or medication for this?

Retinoids can help improve the appearance of stretch marks by promoting collagen production and increasing skin cell turnover. She can try using Retino-A cream 0.05% once daily at night on the affected areas. In addition to topical treatments, she can also consider taking Vitamin E supplements to support skin health and elasticity. I recommend taking Evion 400mg capsule once daily after a meal. It's important to continue using these medications consistently and be patient, as it may take some time to see significant improvement in the appearance of the stretch marks.
