Question

I'm a bit concerned about using Tretiva 20. I've been taking it for the last 10 days, and instead of getting better, my acne has actually gotten worse. Is this normal? Why could this be happening?

Question

I've been dealing with some skin issues after using cosmolite cream on my face for about 45 days. My skin turned black and has become super sensitive since then. I've tried different medicines, but nothing seems to be helping. I went to see a dermatologist, and she suggested I go through 8 sittings to lighten my skin back to its original color. I'm really anxious if this treatment would be suitable for my skin, and I'd like to know if there are any possible side effects involved. Could you provide some guidance on this?

Question

I'm 21 years old and I'm starting to notice some bald spots, especially on my forehead and crown areas. I'm wondering if it's possible for my hair to grow back with a healthier diet, and without having to go through any surgical treatments. Is there hope for my hair to regrow naturally?

Question

I'm really worried about hair loss that both my husband and I are experiencing. We've heard about using a mix of onion juice, garlic, and Evion 400 vitamin E capsules for scalp massages to help with this issue. Do you think this could actually aid in reducing hair fall, or should we consider other treatments? Any advice you could offer would be appreciated.
