Ive started getting sudden acne after using Fudic cream on my face, which was prescribed for a skin allergy related to hair follicles. Im wondering if its caused by the new VLCC facial kit I used or the Fudic cream. What do you think?

Accepted Answer

Sudden acne can be frustrating, especially when you're trying to address another skin concern.Possible Causes of Acne1. Fudic cream: As you mentioned, the cream itself could be causing acne, especially if you're sensitive to any of its ingredients.2. VLCC facial kit: New skincare products can cause acne, especially if they contain comedogenic ingredients that clog pores.3. Skin purging: When introducing new skincare products, your skin may go through a "purge" phase, where it pushes out underlying impurities, leading to temporary acne.4. Hair follicle allergy: The underlying skin allergy related to hair follicles could be contributing to the acne.Recommended Next Steps1. Stop using the VLCC facial kit: Discontinue use to see if the acne improves.

I have so many premature grey hairs and increase day by day pls tell me any solution

Accepted Answer

Greying of hair is a normal aging process which starts around 30 as the melanocytes activity of the body slows down and gradually the melanin production in hair stops. If it is happening before this age, it is called premature greying. This can be genetic and also due to deficiency of essential vitamins and minerals. The hairs which have already turned white cannot be turned back to black. But you can delay the process of greying of hair by some lifestyle modifications. Take adequate sleep and drink lots of water, eat lots of fruits and green leafy vegetables. Few tablets can also be prescribed for the same. there is also one lotion which is supposed to work.
