I've been struggling with acne marks on my face, and once they heal, the scabs leave behind fresh pink skin that doesn't blend in well with the rest of my face. It takes forever for these spots to lighten up or become less noticeable. This whole situation has really hit my confidence hard. I feel embarrassed to go out and often end up avoiding social gatherings because of it. I'm basically drained emotionally by all this. Is there anything I can do to help make these marks fade faster or blend better?

Ive been struggling with severe skin damage for the last 3 years. My family doctor initially prescribed Melalite XL, which I used on my face and neck. Unfortunately, I've now developed dark patches on my chin and cheeks. They look really bad, and it's been really frustrating not finding any relief despite consulting various skin doctors. Could you please guide me on what else I can do to improve my skin condition?

I've had this stubborn deep black spot on my nose for a while now. I've tried chemical peels and even laser treatments, but nothing seems to work. Is there any cosmetic surgery or other procedure that could finally get rid of it? I'm really worried it might be permanent.

dermat opinion is advised.
