I've been using HH Zole cream on my face for a couple of years now, like every week on the 7th day, just as a regular face cream. Initially, I got it to treat an itching problem, which cleared up, but I kept using it. Could this be harmful if I continue this way? Is there something I should be worried about?

I'm thinking about taking vitamin supplements after my CO2 fraxel laser resurfacing. I'm hoping it might help reduce the downtime. Could you tell me if that's a good idea? If so, what vitamins should I consider and how much should I take?

Taking Vitamin C and Vitamin E supplements post Co2 fraxel laser resurfacing can help in reducing downtime and promoting faster healing. You can take Vitamin C 1000mg daily and Vitamin E 400 IU daily to aid in the healing process.

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've got oily skin, but fortunately, I don't have any pimples. I'm looking for a facewash that would be suitable for my skin type. Do you have any recommendations?

I recommend using "Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser". Use it twice a day, in the morning and evening, for best results.
