I've just turned 30 and noticed white hair in my eyebrows all of a sudden. Could this be a sign of some kind of disease? I'm really worried about what might be causing it. Any insight would be appreciated.

The sudden appearance of white hair, especially in the eyebrows, is usually a natural part of the aging process and is not necessarily indicative of a disease. It is a common occurrence as people get older. However, if you are concerned about it, you can try using a hair color product like Just For Men to cover the white hairs.

I've heard from a bunch of friends that homeopathy might help with my hair fall. But I'm really curious if it's actually safe to try out these medicines. And if I start, does that mean I have to keep taking them forever?

Alllopathy is advised to the patient.

I'm considering using an adapalene microsphere plus clindamycin phosphate gel that contains 0.1% adapalene and clindamycin phosphate equivalent to clindamycin 1%. I'm curious if it's a powerful retinol and exfoliant. Can I safely layer it with a mild AHA product, considering I have dry skin? If it's possible to layer without too much exfoliation, what AHA percentage would you suggest, and what type would be best?

Adapalene Microsphere Plus Clindamycin Phosphate Gel is indeed a powerful retinol and exfoliant, containing 0.1% adapalene and 1% clindamycin phosphate. Adapalene helps control excess sebum production, removes dead skin cells, and opens pores, while clindamycin kills bacteria that cause acne. For dry skin, it's essential to be cautious when layering retinoids with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Start by applying a small amount of the gel and gradually increase as your skin becomes more tolerant. If you still want to layer it with a mild AHA product, consider the following: AHA Options 1. Glycolic Acid (5-7%): A gentle, water-soluble AHA that helps brighten and exfoliate the skin. 2. Lactic Acid (5-10%): A hydrating AHA that exfoliates and helps retain moisture. Tips for Layering 1. Apply the AHA product first, allowing it to absorb fully. 2. Wait a few minutes before applying the Adapalene Microsphere Plus Clindamycin Phosphate Gel. 3. Start with a low concentration of AHA and gradually increase as your skin becomes more tolerant.

I'm really struggling with dark lips and I've also got a bad tan on my face. I'm wondering if using Azederm 20 cream or kojivit cream would help with these issues. Can you recommend if these are good options for me or suggest some other creams that might work better?

Kojvit cream is advised.
