I've noticed that every time I masturbate, I break out with about a dozen new pimples on my face. Could there be a link between masturbation and acne? If so, what can I do about it since I know masturbation is a natural part of life?

View allI've been noticing some really deep holes all over my cheeks, and my face seems to be getting darker every day. It's starting to stress me out. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing severe acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. For the deep holes on your cheeks, you may benefit from using a topical retinoid like Retin-A (tretinoin) cream at night to help improve skin texture and promote collagen production. Additionally, for the hyperpigmentation, you can consider using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite (hydroquinone 4%), to help even out your skin tone. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further damage.

I noticed some milia on my eyelid a couple of months back and didn't really think much of it because I heard they're not harmful. But a few friends suggested I should see a dermatologist about it. I'm really curious about what kind of treatments are available and how much they might cost. Can you give me some advice on this?
Treatment for milia usually involves extraction by a dermatologist. They may use a sterile needle or a comedone extractor to remove the milia. In some cases, a topical retinoid cream like Retin-A may be prescribed to help prevent new milia from forming. The cost of treatment can vary depending on the dermatologist and your location
