Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am 18 years old boy. I am having very uneven skin tone on my cheeks somewhere it is dark and somewhere it is white. It started about one year ago. What can I do now any remedies or diet or treatment?
Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, you have pigmentation problem along with mild acne. I will suggest you to start with topical Clindamycin lotion over the pimple area morning and evening and a topical retinoid at night time by mixing it in cold cream. Wash your face with a mild soap. Retinoid at night will improve your skin problems. Apply Acsolve lotion (Clindamycin and Tretinoin) over the lesions twice daily, and apply Arynoin gel plus cold cream (Erythromycin) at night in small quantities on the whole face. Use a moisturizing serum 2 to 3 times a day, and a sunblock with SPF 60. Avoid using Dettol (antiseptic lotion) and other irritants.
Take care.
