I've been using Tretinoin 0.25 cream regularly, and it worked wonders for making my skin bright and tan-free. But after moving to Mumbai post-marriage, my skin's gone dull, and I've started getting pimples. I still use the same cream, yet my face looks lackluster and off. Could you give me some advice on how to fix this?

View allI've been dealing with acne vulgaris on both my cheeks for a few months now, and after following my dermatologist's advice, the acne's finally under control. But now I'm left with these scars on my cheeks. Could you suggest a treatment or maybe some options to help get rid of these scars?
To help reduce the appearance of acne scars on your cheeks, you can try using a topical cream containing Tretinoin. Apply a thin layer of Tretinoin cream 0.025% to the affected areas once daily in the evening. Additionally, you can also consider using a Vitamin C serum to help brighten and even out your skin tone. Apply a few drops of Vitamin C serum in the morning before applying sunscreen. For more severe acne scars, you may benefit from treatments such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion. These procedures can be done by a dermatologist to help improve the texture of your skin and reduce the appearance of scars. Remember to always wear sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further damage and to prevent the scars from worsening.

I've been dealing with a bit of a situation here after getting bitten by leeches about a week ago. Now I've got these dark red acne-like blisters popping up all over my feet. I've been trying to manage it with Benzoate and Four Derm, and while they've helped somewhat with the existing ones, I can't seem to stop new ones from showing up. Do you have any tips on how to get this under control?
