View allI'm a bit confused about a prescription I got. The dermatologist recommended Trilast Hair solution and Q Sera hair serum. Do I need to use both, or just one of them? I'm not sure what's best for my hair, and I really want to get it right. Can you help clarify this?
You were prescribed two different products: Trilast Hair solution and Q sera hair serum. You should use both as per the dermatologist's instructions. Trilast Hair solution is typically applied once daily on the scalp, while Q sera hair serum is usually applied twice daily on the affected areas. Follow the dosage and application instructions provided by your dermatologist for the best results.

About a month ago, my wife suddenly noticed some tiny black dots, about 1 mm in size, appearing on her face and neck over the course of a week. They don't seem like pimples or moles, but they're completely black. This is the first time something like this has happened, and there hasn't been any change in their size or color since then. What could be causing these dots? And more importantly, what should she do to get rid of them?
These black dots could be due to a condition called dermatosis papulosa nigra, which is common in people with skin of color. To get rid of them, your wife can consider using topical retinoids like Adapalene gel 0.1% once daily at night. Additionally, she can also try cryotherapy treatment with liquid nitrogen by a dermatologist to remove the black dots. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment

I've been using this honeymilk face pack overnight, about 12 hours, and even applied it to my eyebrows. My friend just mentioned that using honey on eyebrows can turn them white. Should I be worried? Is it true that honey can do that? Please let me know what you think.
