I've been working as an assistant professor at an engineering college, and I've been using a skin cream called My Fair for about two months. But just last week, I went to my village and spent a lot of time working under the sun in the fields. This made my skin turn extremely dark. My friend, who recommended the cream, said I should have used sunscreen when going out. Thankfully, my skin's back to normal with the same cream, but I'm really troubled by what happened. Can you give me some advice on how to prevent this in the future and how to deal with this dependency on the cream? Id really appreciate some guidance.

I'm really worried and could use some advice. A while back, I used this ointment called Lobate GM on my face when I had just a few pimples. I went through 2 or 3 tubes of it, hoping it would help, but my skin got way worse. I ended up seeing a dermatologist and did a treatment for six months. Now, I've still got these red marks where the pimples were and I'm not sure what to do about them. Could you give me some guidance on what might help fade these marks?
It sounds like you may be dealing with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from the acne. To help lighten the red marks left by the pimples, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream, applied once daily at night. Additionally, using a sunscreen with high SPF during the day is important to prevent further darkening of the marks. Make sure to follow up with your skin specialist for further guidance and monitoring of your progress.
