For stable vitiligo, surgical grafting generally offers faster repigmentation results compared to excimer laser treatment. While excimer laser can achieve repigmentation, surgical options, like split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) and noncultured epidermal cell suspension (NCECS), are often preferred for their quicker and more complete results, especially in stable disease

Question

I'm dealing with hair loss, dandruff, and an itchy scalp, and a dermatologist at DHI suggested I try keraglo men. I'm worried and have some questions about it. First, is it really safe to take keraglo men? If I decide to stop, will there be any side effects? Are there any other supplements I should consider using alongside it, and what happens if I stop them too? I'm also curious if I can take Becosules along with keraglo men. Id appreciate any additional insight you might have.

Question

I've never had bruises like this from a blood draw before, and it's been 4 days now. They started out black and have turned dark brown, with a lot of pain and tenderness, and it seems to be getting worse. I'm even more concerned because I'm 7 weeks pregnant. Should I be worried about these huge bruises and the pain? Is this normal or should I get it checked out?
