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've been using the Skin Lite cream for a couple of months, and now my skin's turned really reddish. I'm worried and not quite sure what to do next. Can you tell me if I'm using it wrong or if there's another cream I should be trying to fix this issue?

I'm a 39-year-old woman and had my gallbladder removed about a year ago. Six months later, I started getting pimples and marks on my skin, which I've never dealt with before. My skin is pretty fair, and I've tried using some products like sebeam soap, cleargel, and epiduo, as recommended by a dermatologist. It's been three weeks, but I'm not seeing much improvement. What's going on, and what else can I do to clear these up?

I'm trying to deal with some acne scars, and my dermatologist recommended nirvalyte gel. But unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere. Do you have any suggestions for other treatments? The pigmentation is just a bit, but the scars are more of the pitting type. I'm curious if there's something else that might help!

You can consider using a topical retinoid cream such as Retin-A (tretinoin) gel. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas at night. Additionally, you can also try using a vitamin C serum to help with pigmentation. Make sure to use a sunscreen during the day to protect your skin. If these treatments do not show significant improvement, you may consider procedures like microdermabrasion or laser therapy after consulting with a dermatologist.
