I've been reading about the Yellow Peel treatment, and I'm wondering if the effects last permanently or if they're just temporary. Can it really get rid of pigmentation on the face for good?

Effects of Yellow Peel treatment are usually temporary. It can help reduce pigmentation on the face, but the results may not be permanent. To reduce pigmentation permanently, you may consider using topical creams containing hydroquinone or tretinoin, or undergoing laser treatments such as Q-switched Nd:YAG laser.

I've been on Diane 35 for about six months, but I stopped three months ago. Now my acne is starting to come back. What can I do about this?

Diane 35 is a hormonal contraceptive that's often prescribed to treat acne, especially in women. However, it's not uncommon for acne to return after stopping the medication. Why Acne Returns After Stopping Diane 35 1. Hormonal Fluctuations: Diane 35 regulates hormonal imbalances, which can help control acne. When you stop taking the medication, hormonal fluctuations can lead to acne recurrence. 2. Underlying Skin Issues: Diane 35 may have been masking underlying skin issues, such as clogged pores, bacterial growth, or inflammation. When you stop taking the medication, these underlying issues can resurface, leading to acne.3. Consider Alternative Acne Treatments: Your dermatologist may recommend alternative acne treatments, such as: - Topical retinoids - Benzoyl peroxide - Salicylic acid - Hormonal treatments (if hormonal imbalances are suspected)

I'm really worried because my face has gotten darker since I delivered my baby. The doctor once mentioned that it might be due to the folic acid tablets I was taking. But now it's been over three years, and my face keeps getting darker while the rest of my body remains the same as before I gave birth. There's such a noticeable difference between my face and body color, and it's really concerning me. Could you please help me understand what's going on and what I might be able to do about this?

Post delivery hyperpigmentation is very common and the treatment is a gradual process rather than overnight change. Use Sun protection like sunscreen with spf 30 or higher and avoid direct sunlight.Use skin lightening creams containing vitamin C , Niacinamide , Azelaic acid etc.There are so many different treatment options available like chemical peels, laser treatments etc.Consult a dermatologist and go through proper treatment while maintaining a healthy lifestyle you can get rid of this hyperpigmentation completely .

I've been using Patanjali toothpaste on my face to try and get rid of some pimples, but now my skin's super dry, really irritated, and parts feel like they're burning. What should I do to fix this, and is it safe to use toothpaste like that on the skin anyway?
