Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Usage of oil on face depends on skin type. In persons with oily skin, additional application of oil must be avoided to prevent clogging of pores. In persons with dry or flaky skin, any natural oils may be used in moderation to mosturize the skin. Coconut oil, almond oil are some of the natural oils which are good for skin.

I'm wondering if it's okay to use these capsules for my dull and pigmented skin. I also have scars and acne pits, and I'm worried about any side effects. How long should I continue using them?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

Can you help me with these stretch marks? I've been hitting the gym for about 2 years now, and I've started noticing red stretch marks appearing. I've attached some pics for you to see. How can I get rid of them, and what can I do to prevent them from coming back in the future?

To reduce the redness and visibility of your stretch marks, you can try using a topical cream containing ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, or vitamin C. One option is to use a cream like Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy, applying it to the affected areas twice a day. In addition to topical treatments, maintaining a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals, staying hydrated, and moisturizing your skin regularly can also help improve the appearance of stretch marks. It's important to keep your skin well-hydrated to promote healing and elasticity. To prevent future stretch marks, you can also consider incorporating foods rich in collagen and antioxidants into your diet, such as fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Staying hydrated and maintaining a consistent exercise routine can also help keep your skin healthy and less prone to developing stretch marks. Remember, results may vary for each individual, and it's important to be patient as it can take time to see improvements in the appearance of your stretch marks.
