Which is more effective for acne removal plastic surgery or laser treatment? I've been struggling with acne for a while and want to know the best option for clearer skin
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Laser treatments are generally more effective for treating active acne and acne scars than plastic surgery, although both can play a role in a comprehensive treatment plan. Laser treatments can address active acne by reducing inflammation and bacteria, and they can also improve the appearance of acne scars by stimulating collagen production. Plastic surgery, on the other hand, is more commonly used to improve the appearance of acne scars, particularly severe ones, through procedures like excision or subcision.

View allI've got this thing happening with my nipples where the skin turns dark brown or even black and gets really hard. It seems dry and cracked, and when I peel it off and use some cream or lotion, it gets better. But as soon as I stop using the cream, it goes back to how it was before. This has been happening for about two years now, and Im 19 years old. Do you have any idea what might be causing this and what I should do?
The dark brown or black, hard, dry, and cracked skin on the tip of your nipples may be a sign of nipple eczema, dermatitis, or hyperpigmentation, and to manage it, apply a fragrance-free moisturizer, avoid harsh soaps, and consider consulting a dermatologist
