I've been given Onabet SD topical solution for a scalp issue. Can you tell me how to apply it? Do I need to leave it in, or should I wash it out after a while? I'm a bit confused about the right way to use it.

I've been dealing with vitiligo on my lips since 2007 and I've been using tacrolimus ointment 0.1 along with oral psoralen tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there anything else I should try or any advice you might have for my situation?
Vitiligo on lips since 2007, tacrolimus ointment 0.1% is being used at present along with oral psoralen tablet. But no any result. For vitiligo on the lips that has not responded to tacrolimus ointment and oral psoralen tablet, another treatment option to consider is topical corticosteroids. You can try using a potent topical corticosteroid like Clobetasol propionate ointment 0.05% twice daily on the affected areas of the lips. Additionally, phototherapy with narrowband UVB light can also be beneficial for treating vitiligo. It is important to continue treatment consistently and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My sister cut her hand with a blade about a year ago, and she still has the cut marks. What can we do to help fade these scars or make them less noticeable? Any tips or treatments would be really appreciated.
Topical Creams 1. Silicone-based creams: Creams containing silicone can help flatten and soften raised scars. 2. Hydroquinone creams: Creams with hydroquinone can help reduce hyperpigmentation associated with scarring. It's essential to consult a dermatologist before starting any treatment. They will assess the scar and recommend the best course of treatment.
