Usage of oil on face depends on skin type. In persons with oily skin, additional application of oil must be avoided to prevent clogging of pores. In persons with dry or flaky skin, any natural oils may be used in moderation to mosturize the skin. Coconut oil, almond oil are some of the natural oils which are good for skin.

I've noticed a little white spot on my upper lip and I'm really concerned about it. It's just this tiny dot and I'm not sure what it is or how to handle it. Could you let me know what this could be and how I might go about removing it or treating it? I'm feeling a bit uneasy about it.

Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .

I'm a bit concerned about the hair growth around a wound on my chin where I had a mole removed. The stitches are healing, but I'm noticing the hair from my stubble is growing in different directions, making it look all bunched up in the area near the wound. Just wondering, once the scar tissue settles, will the hair start growing normally again? Will it stop looking all bunched together?

When the scar tissue settles down, the hair growth pattern may improve. In the meantime, you can try using Minoxidil solution to promote hair growth and improve the appearance of the area. Apply Minoxidil 5% solution twice daily on the affected area for better results.
