Accepted Answer

Bontress leave-on lotion, containing saw palmetto, biotin, and keratin, may help reduce hair fall by blocking dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone contributing to hair loss; while individual results vary, some users report noticeable improvements within 2-4 weeks, with significant reductions in hair fall after 8-12 weeks of consistent use;

Accepted Answer

The prolonged use of Betnovate cream, a potent topical corticosteroid, can lead to severe side effects like redness, acne, dryness, and skin atrophy; to address these issues, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized guidance, and potential treatments may include: topical treatments like retinoids, antibiotics, or hydroquinone; laser therapy or intense pulsed light (IPL) to reduce redness and promote collagen production; platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which may help stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture; and sun protection, moisturizers, and gentle skincare routines to manage dryness and sensitivity

I used dettol on my face over one pimple (which has been there for 34 months.). My skin burned over there. Burned skin is no more there. But one black mark left there. and its being darker and darker day by day.
What should I do?

Accepted Answer

The dark mark, likely a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) scar, can be treated with topical creams or serums containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or niacinamide; consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and personalized advice, and in the meantime, use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily and avoid picking or scratching the area to prevent further darkening.

Accepted Answer

The dark patches on your inner thighs could be a sign of a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with insulin resistance. To address this, I recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone and tretinoin, such as Tri-Luma cream, to lighten the dark patches. Additionally, managing your insulin levels through lifestyle changes and medications like metformin can help improve the condition. For the increased appetite and tiredness, it is important to address the underlying cause, which may involve further evaluation and treatment.

Accepted Answer

Long-term use of Minokem N 5% lotion (Minoxidil + Azelaic acid + Tretinoin) may lead to potential side effects, such as skin irritation, dryness, or allergic reactions, although rare; while minoxidil is generally safe for long-term use, azelaic acid and tretinoin may increase skin sensitivity, and prolonged use of tretinoin can lead to skin thinning or increased risk of skin cancer; consult a dermatologist to assess your individual risk-benefit profile and determine if lifelong use is advisable, considering regular monitoring and potential adjustments to your treatment plan.
