Glyaha HQ Lotion, Clindamycin, Kojivit Gel, Hyper-pigmentation On Chin
Hi Doctor. I am 24yrs old girl. I had been prescribed by Skin Doctor to apply Glyaha HQ lotion for two months with alternate use of Clindamycin i.e, one night Glyaha and the next night Clindamycin. However after two months he recommended to use Kojivit gel in the place of Glyaha as I told him my skin has become dry since its application and he prescribed me to use Glyaha only on Sunday nights. Now I use Kojivit gel and Clindamycin on alternate days and Glyaha on Sundays as prescribed by the Doctor. But now I have some pimple marks on my right cheek and I want them to fade asap. Can I start applying Glyaha again like before on alternate days? And does it help in fading Pimple scars that are little deep? And I have hyper pigmentation on my chin beneath my lower lip . Does Glyaha help lightening that? And are there any serious side affects of Glyaha HQ lotion? Please help.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Glyaha HQ lotion doesn't have very serious side effects, don't worry.
The better way to get rid of post pimple pigmentation is chemical peeling. This is the fastest, safest, and the cheapest way.
The treatment plan for post acne scars (pits) is totally different. It is done either by fractional CO2 laser, derma roller, along with a combination of TCA cross.
For individual isolated pits, subcision is better. These treatment options should only be tried when new pimples have stopped occurring.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Arika Bansal
