Ive been trying to get glowing skin, and I'm really curious about how to achieve it. Is it actually possible to make my skin glow, or is that just a myth? Any advice you could share would be great!

There can be several causes why your skin would turn dark or you may get pigmentation. Sun tan, overweight, pigmentation disorders like acanthosis nigricans or melasma, nutritional deficiency etc are some conditions. Unless someone examines you, we cannot know the cause. Unless we find out the cause it is difficult and pointless to treat.

I've noticed that some of the roots in the middle of my mustache aren't growing all of a sudden. It's really weird because I can see the roots, but there's no growth happening. This started happening after I got some facials and treatments for my wedding. Any idea why this might be happening or how I can get them to grow back?

That could be folliculitis or furuncle,needs evaluation,visit Suregeon for the same and also maintain proper personal hygiene.

I've been using Deriva BPO gel for my moderate acne, but after a week, I started to notice some redness. Now, the redness has gone down, but there's still this dark area around my mouth. Could this be hyperpigmentation from the gel, or might it be caused by something else?

side effects include nausea, headache etc , continue all the medications ..

I've had multiple small lipomas on both hands for the past 23 years, with some on my stomach and chest too. About 12 of them hurt when pressed hard. New ones keep appearing, and some older ones are getting bigger. Every doctor I've seen says surgery is the only option, but there are so many and I'm worried about scarring. Is there a safe treatment that can stop new lipomas from forming?

excision is advised to the patient,also surgery opinion at apollo hospital for further tt.
