I've been prescribed Ketoconazole cream for some itching on my testicles. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if it has any steroids in it. Do you think it's safe for me to use?

I'm dealing with almost complete baldness for the past 10 years. Do you think it's a good idea for me to try refollium, which is a DHT blocker? I'm wondering if it could help or if I should be concerned about any side effects. What are your thoughts?

I've been noticing some really deep holes all over my cheeks, and my face seems to be getting darker every day. It's starting to stress me out. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing severe acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. For the deep holes on your cheeks, you may benefit from using a topical retinoid like Retin-A (tretinoin) cream at night to help improve skin texture and promote collagen production. Additionally, for the hyperpigmentation, you can consider using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite (hydroquinone 4%), to help even out your skin tone. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further damage.
