Question 1

Hello Doctor,Im considering YAG laser treatment for dark lips, but Ive heard that the results arent permanent. Is that the case for everyone? If I quit smoking (I only smoke once a month right now), stop licking my lips, and apply a lip balm with SPF, will the results last longer or even be permanent? Also, if there are any other permanent treatments available, could you please let me know? Looking forward to your advice. Best regards, Milnd

Accepted Answer

YAG laser treatment for dark lips can provide long-lasting results, but they may not be permanent for all cases. Quitting smoking, avoiding lip licking, and regularly applying lip balm with SPF can help maintain the results for a longer period. Additionally, you can consider permanent treatments like Q-switched Nd:YAG laser therapy or chemical peels for dark lips. These treatments can offer more permanent results compared to YAG laser treatment.

Question 4

Im having IGE level more than 3000. It causes itching all over the body. Since 2 months im using some tablets priscribed by doctor but no use . Tablets causes excess weight in my body . Is there risk having severe ige

Accepted Answer

In such cases, it is important to discuss alternative treatment options with your doctor. To help reduce itching and lower your IGE levels, you can consider taking antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. Additionally, your doctor may also prescribe corticosteroids like Prednisone in a low dose to help control the itching. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and regularly monitor your IGE levels to assess the effectiveness of the treatment. Severe IGE levels can pose a risk as it indicates an overactive immune response, which can lead to various allergic reactions. It is important to address the underlying cause of the elevated IGE levels and work with your doctor to manage your symptoms effectively.
