Brief Answer:
Regarding your face skin concerns

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I would suggest you to use a Glycolic acid based exfoliating face wash e.g. either D'acne soft face wash gel or AHA glow face wash. Use it twice daily for some time. It would help oil control as well as exfoliate pigment and dead cells.

Use a Kojic acid based cream e.g. Kojic cream during the day. Kojic acid is skin lightening. Also use a gel based sunscreen e.g. Suncote gel, whenever you are outdoors. At night you may use Yugard cream. It contains retinol which is anti-ageing as well as helps reduce pigmentation.

These are all prescription products and I advice you to talk to your local practitioner.

Thank you! This is very helpful.

Request you to suggest a solution for my hair fall & dandruff too. My hair is thinning day by day and I also have dandruff. I have hypothyroidism which is under control.

Brief Answer:
Regarding dandruff and hair thinning

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

For dandruff i suggest you to use Sebamed antidandruff shampoo. Use it on alternate days.

Hair thinning could be due to androgenetic alopecia . I suggest you may take an oral biotin supplement e.g either Tab. Avitin 7 or Tab. Revilus once a day for 4-6 months.
