I've been using Betnovate-N cream for about 10 years, usually applying it at night in a thick layer. I stopped using it two months ago, and now I'm dealing with redness, itching, dry skin, and small blisters on my face. I've tried using aloe vera, glycerin, and a Cetaphil cleanser, but I'm still experiencing these issues along with pimples. Do you have any suggestions or remedies to help me get rid of these side effects? I'm really worried about my skin.

View allI've stopped using mometasone furoate cream for a week now, but I'm noticing these dark circle patches appearing on my skin. What can I do to get rid of these patches and clear up my skin?
You can try using a hydroquinone cream along with a good sunscreen to help lighten the dark patches on your skin. You can try using Melalite cream (hydroquinone) in the evening and applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day. Make sure to apply the cream only on the dark patches and follow up with a moisturizer. Additionally, you can consider using a vitamin C serum to help brighten your skin. Remember to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment.

I'm really concerned about why my face is noticeably darker than the rest of my fair-skinned body. Could sun damage be the cause, and if so, is there a way to lighten my face back to match my body color? I've tried Cosmelan Treatment a couple of years ago, and it helped at first, but now my face is dark again. What can I do about this?
Use SPF 30 sunscreen on all exposed parts of the skin. Use dermal skin peels and dermatologist recommended skin lightening agents. Get evaluated by a qualified dermatologist to rule out other causes of pigmentation and need for chemical peels or micro dermabrasion. Maintain a healthy diet containing lots of Vitamin C and green leafy vegetables. Accompany this with about 150 minutes of physical activity each week.

I'm dealing with really rough and frizzy hair right now and I'm thinking about getting a keratin treatment. But I've also got a lot of dandruff at the moment. Is it a bad idea to go ahead with the keratin treatment while I'm dealing with dandruff, or should I wait until it clears up? Also, does a keratin treatment lead to any hair loss? Would love some advice.
