I've had this scar on my left arm for about 4 years now from a cut, and I'm really hoping to either get rid of it or at least make it less noticeable or flatten it. What do you recommend for situations like this?

View allIs it possible to permanently lighten or whiten my entire skin tone without surgery? What treatments are available for this, and do they actually work long-term? I'm curious about safe options that don't involve plastic surgery.

I'm allergic to Dettol and Savlon and whenever I use them on my skin, I get rashes and red spots. A few days ago, I had a skin prick allergy test and they cleaned my skin with something that probably had the same ingredient, so I've ended up with really itchy red rashes and spots on both my forearms. Do you think this could be causing a more severe reaction? How should I treat these rashes, and is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again in the future?
This is quite rare.. But you are allergic to antiseptic solution itself.. So should avoid it.. Check if you are allergic to soap or not?? Some people are allergic to different things.. Whenever you go to hospital you must open up about this allergiec history......
