Question

I've recently had my armpits waxed and a few hours later I noticed some irritation. The skin turned red initially and now it's become really dark. I'm quite worried about how it looks. Its been several days without any improvement or lightening of these black patches. Could you suggest any solution for this?

I've just found a small lump in my inner left thigh. It's pretty noticeable and I can feel it when I touch the area. It's a bit under an inch around and oddly, it doesn't hurt. Who do you think I should talk to about this? Any idea what might be going on?

I've got this corn on the bottom of my foot that's causing me quite a bit of pain, especially when I walk. I even tried using corn caps, but they didn't really work. It's getting really frustrating. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

Question

I'm considering using Retiglow by Indiabulls for my open pores and sensitive skin, but I'm really unsure if it's a good idea since my skin is quite thin. I'm only 20 years old, so I'm worried about whether it's safe or suitable for someone my age. Could you let me know if it's okay to use?
