I've been struggling with acne on my face and back, and I'm worried about the black marks it leaves behind. I've tried using Adalene Nanogel 15g as my doctor suggested, but it hasn't completely resolved the issue. Can you help me figure out how to get rid of the acne and those spots?

In addition to Adalene Nanogel, you can try using Benzoyl Peroxide gel (2.5%) in the morning and Adapalene gel (0.1%) at night. This combination can help reduce acne breakouts and prevent new ones from forming. For the black marks left by acne, you can use a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone (4%) and apply it only on the dark spots at night. Remember to use a sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening. Make sure to follow a gentle skincare routine, avoid picking or squeezing acne lesions, and maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to improve your skin condition.

I'm really worried about my skin after using No Scar cream. I'm experiencing some side effects, and it's making me anxious. How long does it usually take for the skin to get back to normal and regain its usual appearance after such issues?

It is difficult to predict exactly how long it will take for the skin to return to its previous appearance after experiencing side effects from a no scar cream. The time frame can vary depending on the individual's skin type, the severity of the side effects, and how the skin responds to treatment. However, you can consider using a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil or Aveeno to help soothe the skin and promote healing.
