I've been struggling with acne and pimples, mainly on my cheeks, for about a year now. My skin tends to look quite reddish. Can you recommend any good tablets or creams that might help?

View allI've been using Skinlite cream for a while now, and I noticed it made my skin really fair. But when I stopped, my skin got darker, which was really frustrating. I tried using it again, hoping to get the same result, but this time it just didn't work. I'm really worried because I want to lighten my skin tone, and it's bothering my husband. What should I do?
Continued and prolonged use of skinlite cream can lead to skin darkening when discontinued, a condition known as rebound hyperpigmentation. To address this issue and lighten your complexion, you can try using a combination of Kojic acid cream in the morning and Hydroquinone cream at night. Apply Kojic acid cream in the morning and Hydroquinone cream at night for 4-6 weeks. Make sure to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening. If you experience any irritation or side effects, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

I'm a bit confused about my test results. I tested negative for VDRL and RPR, but my TPHA came back positive at 1160. What does this mean for me in terms of timing or stage of syphilis? I've already taken a 2g dose of Azithromycin. Should I be concerned about needing Penicillin or Doxycycline too?
