I've got quite a few holes on my face from acne. What are some effective creams or treatments to help remove them?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Acne scars can be treated with topical creams containing ingredients like retinoids, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. You can try using a cream like Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, applying it to the affected areas twice a day. Additionally, you can use a cream with hydroquinone, such as Ambi Skincare Fade Cream, to help lighten any dark spots left by acne. Remember to apply sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

View allI'm really concerned about my face looking thin and elongated even though I'm gaining weight on my body. It kind of makes me look older, and Id really love to have chubby cheeks that make my face look healthier and fuller. Could you give me some advice on what kind of diet I should be following to achieve this? And would taking protein supplements like Protex help with making my face look healthier?

I've got these dark, lump-like scars from some leech bites I had a few months back. They're not itchy or anything, but I'm wondering what I can do to treat them. Any advice?
I recommend using Mederma Advanced Scar Gel to help reduce the appearance of the dark scars caused by the leech bites. Apply a thin layer of Mederma Advanced Scar Gel on the affected area once daily. This can help improve the appearance of the scars over time.
