Question

I'm struggling with vitiligo for the past 4 years and it's really concerning me. I've got these white patches on my neck and chest, and nothing seems to work. I followed a treatment plan for 34 months with tablets like Orofer after lunch, Meganeuron in the morning, used Melgain lotion after a bath, got some sun exposure before lunch, and applied Tacoz forte ointment at night, but there's been no improvement. I'm from Mumbai and Marine Lines is the closest station to me. Can you please guide me on what I might be doing wrong or if there's an alternative treatment I should consider?

Question

I've been dealing with serious hair fall and it's really stressing me out. My hair tends to be really fizzy, so I decided to try a rebonding treatment a few months back. At first, everything seemed fine for about four months, but now I'm losing around 50-60 hairs a day, and it's starting to freak me out. Could you please help me understand what's happening and what I should do?

Question

I'm African American and I've noticed my skin used to be much lighter, but over the past six years, it's gotten so dark that I can barely see myself at night. I spend most of my time indoors and rarely go out. I've tried skin bleaching products before, and they worked, but once I stop using them, my skin becomes darker again. Do you have any suggestions for lotions or treatments I could try to help with this?

Question

I've had these brown spots on the top of my feet and ankles for years, and now they're spreading up to my shins. What's going on with my skin? Should I be concerned about this?
