Question

I've noticed that my lips, especially the upper one, are quite pigmented. I'm wondering if a laser treatment would be a good option for me. Also, do you have any idea about how much it might cost?

Question

I'm seeing these itchy red bumps that look like pimples on my forearms and ears. They first appeared two days ago on my hands and ears but have now spread to my forearms. They're not on my biceps or shoulders, which are usually covered by my t-shirt. Could this be related to the weather change? I was driving in the sun two days ago during the daytime and started noticing these patches afterward. What do you think?

Question

I'm a 25-year-old woman and I got diagnosed with acatricial alopecia. I've been on medication for the past 4 months and my doctor prescribed me tablets like Perfectil, Zempred 4 mg, Follihair, and Halox lotion. But even after taking all the meds right on time, I'm still seeing a lot of hair fall and my hair's just getting way thinner. I used to have really thick hair up until last year. Now I've got these really noticeable bald patches, about 34 of them. I'm really worried and don't know what to do next. Could you please advise me on what else I could try or look into?
