Question 1

A few years ago, I used hydroquinone for smoother skin and it worked, but then I got acne. I switched to benzoyl peroxide, and the acne cleared up, but now my skin is darker and has pigmentation. Should I go back to using hydroquinone for the dark spots, or would a chemical peel be better?

Question 4

I have a white line around my upper lip and Im not sure why its there. Is there a specific reason this happens and is there anything I can do to get rid of it?

Accepted Answer

The white line around your upper lip could be a condition called angular cheilitis, which is often caused by fungal or bacterial infection, nutritional deficiencies, or excessive saliva accumulation at the corners of the mouth. To treat this, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole twice daily for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area dry and applying a barrier cream like Vaseline can help. If the condition persists, it's best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 5

I just turned 30 and noticed some white hairs in my eyebrows. Is this something to be concerned about, or is it normal?

Accepted Answer

The sudden appearance of white hair, especially in the eyebrows, is usually a natural part of the aging process and is not necessarily indicative of a disease. It is a common occurrence as people get older. However, if you are concerned about it, you can try using a hair color product like Just For Men to cover the white hairs.
