Asked for Female | 28 Years

I am 28 years old. I have a pits on my cheeks. What are the treatment of these pits and pimples marks?

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

Below is just a list of treatments options that are available to every patient, but based on your health background and severity of concern, the dermatologist will ultimately decide which course to proceed forward with.

However, you can try and enquire regarding these with your specialist: 

  1. Chemical Peel (Rs. 1,800-10,000): A mixture of acids that is beneficial for skin, is applied on the concerned region of your body, in the required quantity, which dries up and is removed thereafter - this process aids in the regeneration of newer & healthier skin cells by removing upper tanned layers of skin.
  2. Microdermabrasion (Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000 per session): Acts on the epidermis only (superficial scarring). During the treatment, your dermatologist will use a drill-like handheld appliance with a wire brush or some other abrasive as its attachment, to swipe over your skin. Same will eliminate epidermal scarring.
  3. Dermabrasion (Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000 per session): Same as Microdermabrasion, but also reaches a part of your dermis which is a little deeper.
  4. Laser resurfacing (Rs. 4,000 to Rs. 10,000 per session): laser device breaks down pigment and reduces the appearance of tan, sun spots, etc.
  5. Microneedling (Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 25,000 per session): You will be supplied with anesthesia, followed by fine pricks being created evenly throughout face, and then there will be a gentle application of serum, which will result in growth of collagen
  6. Either OTC or Prescription - Creams/face pack/face wash (Rs. 200 to Rs. 2000): Results last for comparatively lesser amount of time, and tanning can affect even deeper layers of your skin while these would work on only the surface level of your skin.

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.

Dhoop me face black ho gya hai kaun si cream ya face wash ya aur koi suggestion ho to btaye

Male | 35

Sunburn is one of the reasons it can happen. Prolonged exposure to the sun can cause your skin to become dark. So, you can apply a cream with aloe vera or cucumber to cuddle your skin. Another recommendation is to wear sunblock when you are going outdoors to keep your face protected.

i have hyperhidrosis. please help

Male | 15

Hyperhidrosis is a condition when you perspire a lot more than normal. It can occur on your hands, feet, under your armpits, or even all over your body. It could be the result of overactive sweat glands or triggered by anxiety, heat, or spicy food. Besides that, there are several things you can do to manage it such as antiperspirants, medications, Botox injections, or in severe cases, surgery.

I have ringworm for almost 4 months .some of the ringworm in my inner thighs and now in pubic area too.Some of them under my breast too.applied clotrimazole, terbinafine ointments. But didn't worked.What should I do

Female | 18

It looks like you have bad case of ringworm which did not respond to the OTC medicines. I suggest that as soon as possible you see a dermatologist who specializes in fungal infections. They may give you oral antifungal medicine and topical treatment to improve the result. Seek urgent medical care since untreated ringworm can cause problems.

My mother had a small lump on her hand so can she take moxiforce cv 625 this medicine

Female | 58

Any lump or soft tissue can be due to many reasons like injury, inflammation, or even tumors. Moxiforce CV 625 is a medicine prescribed to treat infections, but without determining the exact cause of the lump, it is not advisable to use it. It is more preferable to have a doctor to check the lump and decide which is the best treatment.
