I've recently undergone RF treatment for my Xanthelasma, and while the wound has healed, the skin there doesn't quite match the rest of my skin tone. Do you have any recommendations for creams or treatments that could help even it out?

I would recommend using a cream containing hydroquinone to help lighten the skin and reduce any remaining discoloration. You can try using a cream like Melalite Forte cream, applying a thin layer on the affected area once daily in the evening. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day to protect the skin and prevent further darkening.

I've been getting a lot of red spots on my body and they're super itchy. I've tried some home remedies, but nothing seems to be working. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction or a skin condition such as eczema or hives. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (10mg) to help with the itching and redness. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion to the affected areas. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm 19 and dealing with acne. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take CIPRODAC 500 as an antibiotic just once a day. Would that be okay for my skin, or is there something else I should consider? Just trying to figure out the best way to handle this.
Ciprodac 500, containing ciprofloxacin, is typically prescribed for bacterial infections, and while it may help with acne caused by bacterial overgrowth, it's essential to consult a dermatologist before taking it, as antibiotics can have side effects, and acne treatment usually involves topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or hormonal therapies, and not necessarily oral antibiotics like ciprofloxacin.
