Pimple marks/ dark spots
Hello doctor, I have some light pimple marks or dark spots on my face. Though they are not very prominent but still I want them to fade away as soon as possible. Can I use glyco 6 or kojivit gel for the same ? If yes, which one will be better? Also, I'm a lactating mother, so are these creams safe ?

Hi. Greetings. Pimples may often leave spots especially if not treated or if we burst pimples or pick them. You'll need skin lightening creams for a specified duration to reduce the marks, and this could also be dealt with chemical peeling. Also you must use a sunscreen to prevent darkening of the spots. For scars, creams may not work n you may need procedures like microneedling, microneedling rf, fractional lasers, prp or subscision or a combination of these. Send in your pictures if you need further assistance. Or see a dermatologist near you and discuss the same with him. Either of the creams you mentioned is fine. Hope this helps. Warm regards.
