I've been dealing with a fixed drug eruption for the past four years and have been seeing a skin specialist for treatment. Initially, I was given various lotions, but I really didn't see any improvement. I got so frustrated that I started looking up remedies online, and that's when I found out about laser treatment. I tried that route, and it's been about 10 months since I had it done. Unfortunately, my issue hasn't improved completely, and now my dark brown mark has just turned into a white one with tiny dark spots. Could you advise me on what steps I should consider next?

I'm noticing that every time I thread my upper lip, a white patch shows up that's lighter than my normal skin color. I've talked to a doctor online who recommended using Placentrex cream twice a day. I'm curious about how to get my skin back to its usual color. Also, I have an iron deficiencycould that be causing this? What should I do next?

that color difference is due to threading,that will heal with time no need to worry,u can use the gel as advised by your doctor,it will help in normalising the color.

I've got a question about Perlice Lotion. Dr. Aamir Siddiqui suggested it for my mom when she had dandruff and lice a few months ago. I'm wondering if it's okay to use it again or if there's a better option now. What do you think?
