I'm looking for a good skin brightening cream for my face that doesnt have any side effects. Right now, Im using a glycolic acid cream with a concentration of 6. Do you think this could lead to any side effects?

Glycolic acid cream 6% can cause side effects such as redness, irritation, dryness, and peeling of the skin, especially if not used properly. It is important to use sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid to prevent sun sensitivity. As for a skin brightening cream without side effects, you can try using "Kojic acid cream" in the evening. Start by applying a small amount every other night to see how your skin reacts, and gradually increase to nightly use if tolerated well. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

I've been using Betnovate N for about 7-8 years, but whenever I stop, I get these rashes, redness, and itching on my face. I've seen a skin specialist who first gave me Momisoft cream and Uvrid NF sunscreen, along with some tablets for 10 days. That seemed to help, then he switched me to Lutica and the same sunscreen for another 15 days, and it was working well. When I was in Rajasthan, he gave me Desolim cream and the sunscreen, and my skin was fine there. But now I've moved to Guwahati where it's more humid, and the rashes and redness are back. I saw a specialist here and he prescribed Eumosone and other tablets like CFM 500mg, Candimore, Mantrayx, and Lpredace 8mg, but they don't seem to be helping either. The itching and redness are still there, and I'm really desperate to fix this. What should I do to finally get rid of these skin issues?

Clopivate cream for local application is advise for 7 days, if any side -effects dermatologist opinion is advised .

I'm dealing with seborrheic dermatitis and I'm using Onabet SD solution. I'm a bit unsure about how long I should leave it on my hair before washing it out. Also, how many times a week should I be applying it for the best results? Any advice would be really helpful!

For Onabet SD solution, apply it to the affected scalp area, leave it on for 1-2 hours or overnight before washing, and use it 2-3 times a week for 2-4 weeks or as directed by your doctor for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis.
