I'm really curious about using Fair & Lovely, Vicco turmeric cream, and Himalaya fairness cream on my face. Are these creams safe for facial skin, and which one would you recommend as the best option? I've heard different things and just want to make sure I'm choosing the right one for my skin. Any advice would be great!

Among these, Vicco turmeric cream is considered safer as it contains natural ingredients like turmeric which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It is best to use Vicco turmeric cream for the face. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the face once or twice daily for best results.

I've got a keloid on my chest and I've been told to use Betadine solution and then nadoxin ointment on it. After I clean it up with the Betadine, should I just go ahead and put on the nadoxin right away? Or do I need to rinse it with warm water before applying the ointment?

You can apply the nadoxin ointment immediately after cleaning with Betadine solution. There is no need to clean it with warm water before applying the ointment. Just make sure to gently pat the area dry after cleaning with Betadine before applying the ointment.
