I've been dealing with acne and my doctor prescribed Tretin ISO 10mg capsules along with Acnelack face wash. I've heard a lot about the AHA Glow face wash though and I'm wondering which one would be better for my skin. Should I stick with Acnelack or try AHA Glow instead? I want to make sure I'm using the best option to help clear up my acne.

I'm really struggling with these colloid milia around my eyes. I've had them since 4th grade, and they make me feel self-conscious because they look so bad. Do you have any advice on how I can get rid of them?

I'm a bit concerned about this hard lump that's been on my left cheek for about two years now. It's about the size of half a small potato, and while it's not painful, I'm worried about what it could be. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
