I've got some cut marks on my hand from using a blade, and I'm really worried about how to get rid of them. Could you please let me know what I can do to make these marks fade or go away?

I'm wondering if it's okay to skip my vitamin C enerc 1000 doses every now and then. Will it affect my treatment if I miss some doses here and there? What would you recommend I do in this situation?

So I've been using Betnovate N cream and it really helped lighten my face, but when I stopped using it, my face got darker again and I've also ended up with dark circles. Can you suggest a good cream for fairness, and maybe help with the back skin issue too?
To address the darkening and dark circles on your face, you can try using a cream containing Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone in the night for a limited period under the guidance of a dermatologist. For fairness, you can use a cream containing Kojic Acid, Arbutin, and Vitamin C in the morning. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.
