Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Recently, I have been having issues with my smile lines and chin. I noticed tiny red, dry bumps. Thereafter, I started tanning. It is not acne, just dry patches.
I am not sure how to get rid of them. It has been about a month since I started tanning, and I have been following a proper skincare routine and moisturizing, but nothing seems to help.
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.

To improve this, follow these steps:
I hope you are satisfied with my answer.
For further queries, you can consult me at iCliniq.
Thank you.
