Hello! I had some pimples on my face before but at present there are some scars left on my face and it looks bad. I want to remove these scars from my face. What is the solution? Can you please help?

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

For scars, there are medications available, such as Benozyl peroxide (kills bacteria associated with acne), salicylic acid (exfoliation benefits), retenoids (reduces inflammation and prevents pimple formation), azelaic acid (anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory), and topical antibiotics (kills bacteria along with reducing inflammation) - while some of them will be easily found in your nearest drug store, but others will require medical prescription, and even for those which are easily available, a doctor would still have the stronger version for same. They tend to make your skin more sensitive to sun, so an expert would be able to help you figure out what kind of sunscreen to use and in what frequency to make use of these medications, also, there are advanced treatments for acne too, like laser resurfacing, chemical peel, dermabrasion and microdermabrasion. For more information, you should consider getting in touch with experts from our page - Acne Scar Treatment doctors in Mumbai, or that of any other city convenient to you.

Skinny fat in tummy thigh and butt

Male | 23

"skinny fat" in your tummy, thighs, and butt is quite common. "skinny fat" refers to having a higher percentage of body fat and lower muscle mass, even if you appear slender. This can be due to factors like a lack of exercise, poor diet, or genetics. To address this, incorporating strength training exercises, such as squats or lunges, can help build muscle and tone those areas. Also, focusing on a balanced diet with plenty of protein and veggies can support your fitness goals.

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent

Female | 18

Dealing with acne­ spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using aze­laic acid: safe for most people. A 10% conce­ntration is effective. It re­duces acne breakouts and fade­s discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cle­ansing. Complement with sunscree­n and moisturizer.

I think I have herpes what should I do

Male | 22

Herpe­s is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. The­se blisters often appe­ar around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. He­rpes may seem bad, but doctors can give­ you antiviral medicine. Using protection during se­x helps prevent spre­ading it too. Good hygiene habits are also ke­y.

I am a 21 year old female. I have a painless neck cyst of in the left size below ear of about pea size for 4-5 years. What should I do?

Female | 21

Such cysts can grow on your neck due to the blockage in the glands. It has been there for an elapsed time and no significant pain has occurred. That is probably nothing to worry about given the duration of its time there and the fact it is asymptomatic. Still, I strongly believe that expert attention from a doctor is needed.

I applied a sunnies face lipstick accidentally ( without examining the lipstick before because i had used it yesterday and it looked fine ) today there was some yellow thin patch on the top part of the lipstick , I wiped it off with water , applied face was ( ponds ) on my lips and then brushed my teeth. Is it okay? should I be concerned? I am not feeling uncomfortable. what should i do with the lipstick? I applied it on my hand ( path was removed after i applied on my lips ) and the texture was fine , with no rash. should I wait and see if the mold regrows? Also i store my lipsticks in dry cool place and i have never mixed it with any other lipstick i just bought it a month ago and used only a few times.

Female | 17

You used a lipstick that may have had some mold on it. Makeup products mold due to age or contamination sometimes. The yellow spot you noticed could be mold. You do not feel any discomfort, so you are probably fine. Always remember to wash the lipstick before using it again. You should also check for any changes on your lips and see a doctor if you notice something unusual.
