Question

I've had this red raised spot on my collarbone for over two weeks now. It's a bit tender and hasn't gotten any smaller or healed at all. It doesn't look like a usual spot, so I'm unsure if I should try to pop it. It feels hard to touch and seems like it's filled with something, perhaps blood. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

I've been dealing with some hair issues ever since I got my hair straightened about a year ago. My hair was pretty thick, so the stylist left the chemical on for 20 minutes longer than recommended. Now, my new hair growth seems a lot thinner, and I'm also experiencing quite a bit of hair loss even after all this time. Is it possible for my hair to grow back thicker, or do you think the roots might be damaged? The doctor I spoke with suggested using Folliserum. Do you think that'll help with reducing hair fall and boosting new growth? I'm also thinking about a hair transplant, just for the front part because I've lost a lot there. How much do you think I'd be charged for something like that here in Bangalore?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my skin. I've been using this cream for about 6 months, but I've started to notice my skin is getting really thin. Now I'm concerned about stopping it because I've heard there can be some scary side effects, like this thing they call permanent pig. Can you help me figure out the best way to stop using it without dealing with these side effects? I'm really looking for an alternative or anything that might help ease this transition.

Question

I'm looking for a good kojic acid or hydroquinone cream to help with my tan. Even though I'm using sunscreen, my arms and legs have really tanned. Can you recommend something that might work for me?
