I've got this tiny bump, about the size of a pea or smaller, on the bridge of my nose. It's been there for less than a week, and it's a bit red. It doesn't really hurt unless I press on it, but I can see a little bit of white pus under the surface. It doesn't seem like it's going to pop anytime soon. Any idea what this could be? Should I be worried about it? I can send a picture if that helps.

I'm curious about using Lumivoid skin lightening cream for pimple marks. Is it safe to use? And how long does it usually take to see results on those marks? Can you let me know more about it?

Lumivoid skin lightening cream contains hydroquinone which is commonly used to lighten dark areas on the skin such as age spots, melasma, and pimple marks. It is generally safe to use on pimple marks, but it is important to use it as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects. The time it takes for Lumivoid cream to work on pimple marks can vary from person to person. In general, you may start to see some improvement in the appearance of pimple marks within a few weeks of regular use. However, it may take several weeks to months to see significant results. It is important to be patient and consistent with the application of the cream for best results.

I'm using melamet cream and my skin has become fairer and whiter, which is great. But now I'm thinking about stopping the cream. Can you suggest another cream that can help me maintain this skin tone without causing any side effects?

You can consider using a cream containing Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Arbutin for maintaining skin tone without side effects. One such cream is "Kozilite-H Cream." Apply a thin layer of this cream on the affected areas. Don't forget to use sunscreen.
