I've been dealing with persistent redness on my face ever since I used Elosone HT. It's been a long 9 months and I've seen multiple doctors without much luck. They've prescribed various treatments like Benzoyl peroxide gel, Doxybond LB tablets, Clobetamil, aloe vera gel, and Salicylic acid creams, among others. I've also tried Metrogel, Calapure lotion, and Epilyno lotion. Despite all these efforts, the redness still hasn't completely gone away. I'm really worried and could use some help figuring out an effective treatment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose and chin for a while now. My doctor suggested using hhsalic ointment and taking Actilife tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there something else I could try? I'm really looking for any other treatments or advice that could help.

I'm dealing with a lot of acne after getting my face threaded, and my doctor put me on Minoz OD and Avene Triacneal cream for 10 days. The thing is, my acne's actually getting worse, and the scars look more noticeable. I thought the cream would make it peel, but it's just drying it out, and I'm not seeing any peeling even after 10 days. I'm wondering how long I'm supposed to keep using this stuff before I see any results? Why am I ending up with new pimples every day? Could it be the treatment or just a coincidence? Ive never had this many pimples on my face before. What should I do? Any insights on how long it usually takes for acne to fade with these treatments?

I've been taking CANTHEX tablets for my skin pigmentation as the doctor said my weight gain might be causing this issue. But I stumbled across some info online suggesting that CANTHEX is also used for weight loss. I'm a bit confused and kind of worried does this mean that if I continue taking these tablets, there's a chance I might put on more weight?

No need to worry you can use it as advised by your doctor for pigmentation,there is no such record stating it's potential in weight gain.
