I've been noticing these brown pigmentation patches on my upper cheeks and nose, and it's really bothering me. They're like a strip and my skin overall just seems dull and older-looking than it should. Plus, I'm constantly dealing with blackheads on my nose. I know I have combination skin with visible pores but I'm not sure what to do about all these issues. Do you have any advice or tips to help improve my skin situation?

I'm really curious about the laser treatment for removing acne scars. How many sessions would I typically need for noticeable results? And what should I realistically expect in terms of guaranteed improvement? Just trying to get a clear picture before diving into it.

Yes it works and might take minimum 3 sessions to see change and total number of sittings depends on how deep your scars are

I'm really worried about this issue I've been having for the past 4 years. It's not hereditary; I'm pretty sure it's because of my allergies, like the running nose and watery eyes. I know sticking to a healthy diet might help over time, but right now, I need something more immediate. I've heard about treatments like Chemical Peeling and Laser Treatments, but Im not sure which one would be best for me. And I've come across different creams, but dont know which ones to try. Can you help me figure this out?

You can take Montek Lc at bed time but solution would be avoiding allergen and maintain healthy lifestyle,visit Physician for evaluation and healthy lifestyle.
