I've been using both Clearz Ultra and Clearz Max as suggested by my doctor. He mentioned stopping the Max cream after the course and then starting the Clearz Ultra. I'm supposed to use the Max cream on alternate nights for 15 days and then take a 15-day break. Can I use the Clearz Ultra with Kojic and Arbutin long-term, like forever? Is it safe to do that for dark spots? Also, if my pigmentation comes back, is it okay to start using the Max cream again regularly? About using Clearz Ultra at night for a long time, is that advisable? And with Max cream, does it make a difference if I put it on for just an hour or leave it all night? Usually, I just sleep with it on without washing it off. I'm really curious and a bit worried about how to handle this skincare routine. Could you help me understand what's safe and effective?

View allI've been suddenly getting a lot of pimples on my face and back, and it's really confusing me because I thought this phase was over. I started having this issue when I was about 21 or 25, but it settled down for around 23 years. Now, it's been flaring up again for the last 6 months, and I'm 29 now, so I wasn't expecting to deal with this. Do you have any advice on how to tackle this? Should I change my diet or try certain cosmetic products or take some precautions?
You are experiencing a recurrence of acne, which can be frustrating. To help manage your acne, you can consider using a topical treatment containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Brands like Differin gel or Proactiv can be effective. Additionally, maintaining a gentle skincare routine with a non-comedogenic cleanser and moisturizer can help. Avoiding harsh scrubs and picking at your skin is also important to prevent further irritation. In terms of diet, some studies suggest that dairy and high-glycemic foods may exacerbate acne for some individuals, so you may want to consider reducing your intake of these foods. Ensuring you stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins can also support overall skin health. It's important to remember that everyone's skin is different, so what works for one person may not work for another. If your acne persists or worsens, it may be helpful to consult with a dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.

I'm noticing these small white and yellowish spots on the corners of my lips, and they've been there for about a month. They don't hurt or itch, but they look odd when I see them in the mirror. Any idea what this could be?
That could be Fungal infection or Vitamin Deficiency, visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management
