I live abroad in Saudi Arabia and recently purchased Pigmanorm cream, which contains hydroquinone, for my melasma and dyspigmentation. After using it for 3 days, the area where I applied it turned really red. I'm quite worried about this reaction, even though I'm also using Eveline sunscreen SPF 50 in the afternoons. Should I stop using the cream, or should I continue? And will the redness on my skin go away on its own? I'm also sharing a picture of my face and the cream I used to help you understand better. Can you guide me on what to do next?

View allI've been using Myfair cream on my face for the past two weeks, and it seems to be making my skin glow. I havent noticed any side effects so far. Should I keep using it, or would you advise otherwise?
It is not recommended to use Myfair cream for face glowing as it contains hydroquinone which can have potential side effects in the long term such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. Instead, you can switch to a safer alternative like Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum for a more natural and gentle approach to achieve glowing skin. Apply a pea-sized amount of Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum on your face once daily in the evening for best results.

I've been taking Adgain tabs for a while now to help with my hair health, but I'm beginning to wonder how long it's safe to continue them. Could there be any negative side effects on my overall health if I keep using these supplements? I'm a bit concerned and want to make sure I'm not doing any harm to my body.
Adgain tablets are typically safe for long-term use to improve hair health. However, it is important to follow the recommended dosage as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Adgain tablets contain a combination of vitamins and minerals that support hair growth and health. Some common side effects may include gastrointestinal discomfort or allergic reactions.

I'm really curious about platelet rich plasma. Does it actually work for bald spots? Is there any chance that it could help with hair regrowth? And if I decide to go for it, do you think my hair fall will stop, or will I still need to rely on medications? Also, I'm a bit worried about the cost. Can you give me some guidance on that?
