I've got really sensitive skin, and every acne treatment I've tried just ends up making things worse. It's been pretty frustrating. Do you have any recommendations for a cream that's gentle but effective for getting rid of dark acne marks?

I'm really concerned because about 60 days ago, I had a sexual encounter with protection. However, I just got my herpes antibody test results, and they're showing 3.5 for IgM antibodies and 30 for IgG antibodies. Is it possible that herpes could've been transmitted even with protective sex? I'm also wondering if there's any specific treatment I should be considering.

Yes there are chances of you getting herpes despite of having protective sex,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management

I'm dealing with lichen planus pigmentosus and have been for about two years now. Its still pretty active because I keep noticing new pigmentation, especially on my hands. I've got it on my face, neck, and arms too. I tried phototherapy, but it just made things darker, so I stopped that. I've been using Pynormax Tx Depiwhite on my face and neck, and Hydroquinone 5% solution on my hands. I'm also taking Xamic 500mg daily. How long can I keep using all these without worrying about side effects? And with the condition still active, would Glycopeel be a good option for my face and neck?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
