View allI've stopped using mometasone furoate cream for a week now, but I'm noticing these dark circle patches appearing on my skin. What can I do to get rid of these patches and clear up my skin?
You can try using a hydroquinone cream along with a good sunscreen to help lighten the dark patches on your skin. You can try using Melalite cream (hydroquinone) in the evening and applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day. Make sure to apply the cream only on the dark patches and follow up with a moisturizer. Additionally, you can consider using a vitamin C serum to help brighten your skin. Remember to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment.

Im really hoping to lighten my skin by about three shades permanently. Is that even possible? And do chemical peels actually help with skin whitening? If so, which one should I consider?
Chemical peels can help in skin whitening by exfoliating the outer layers of the skin. One of the best chemical peels for skin whitening is the Glycolic Acid peel. It is effective in reducing pigmentation and improving skin tone. The recommended dosage for Glycolic Acid peel is usually 20-70%, depending on your skin type and the severity of pigmentation. It is important to consult with a dermatologist before undergoing any chemical peel treatment to determine the most suitable option for your skin."

I'm dealing with a frustrating fungal infection and I'm unsure how to choose the right antifungal cream for it. Do you have any recommendations or tips on what I should look for in a good antifungal cream? Also, are there any specific ingredients or types that are more effective than others?
I recommend using Clotrimazole cream, applying it to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.
