I've been dealing with perioral dermatitis and using Desowen lotion has been really helpful. However, I recently found out I'm pregnant and read somewhere that it's not safe anymore. Are there any non-steroid alternatives to this lotion that I could use during pregnancy? I'm a bit concerned and would love some advice.

View allI've been dealing with keloid scars on my chest and shoulder that keep getting bigger and itch a lot. It seems to run in my family since my grandfather, father, and uncle all had them too. My uncle tried steroid injections and surgery but had bad results are there other treatment options that might work better for me?

I've been dealing with pimples for the last four years, and they always seem to leave these persistent marks on my cheeks and nose. It's getting really frustrating, and I'm desperate for a solution to get rid of these marks for good. Can you suggest a permanent remedy that could help me clear up my face?
For permanent removal of pimple marks, consider consulting a dermatologist for professional treatments like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser skin resurfacing, and in the meantime, try home remedies like applying aloe vera gel, turmeric paste, or tea tree oil to the affected areas, and maintain a consistent skincare routine, including exfoliating, using sunscreen, and products containing salicylic acid or niacinamide to help reduce acne and prevent scarring.
