Question 1

My face is totally covered with blackheads and whiteheads, except on my forehead. I scrub twice every day because otherwise I feel too self-conscious to go out. I've tried tons of dermatological products, including the PERNEX my last dermatologist suggested, but nothing has worked. Do you know anything that might actually help? I'm feeling really frustrated about this situation.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you have tried various dermatological products without success. In this case, you can try using a topical retinoid cream such as Differin (adapalene) gel. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas once daily at night. Additionally, you can use a salicylic acid cleanser like Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. Use it twice daily to help unclog pores and prevent new blackheads and whiteheads from forming. Remember to moisturize your skin as retinoids can be drying. Be patient as it may take a few weeks to see improvement.

Question 2

Is oily hair good?

Accepted Answer

Sebum or oil is secreted from scalp which naturally nourishes the hair and keeps it healthy. Only when the secretions become excessive, they clog the hair follicles, trap dust and cause hair loss.

Question 3

I've recently recovered from a jock itch infection in my groin area, but it's left the skin there really dark and blackened. The infection itself is gone and Im not having any symptoms now, but the skin hasn't gone back to normal. Is there anything I can do to help it heal or lighten back to its usual color?
