Hello,

You are advised to apply ointments and creams containing retinoids. Retinoids boost collagen production and also improve skin texture. Get clinically examined by a dermatologist. You may need treatment with laser therapy or micro-needling for smooth and flawless complexion.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
