Can hair grow back after Balding?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It depends. If a follicle has closed, disappeared, scarred, or not generated a new hair in years, then a new hair wouldn't be able to grow

Hair Regrowth Possibility:
- Early Stages: Treatments like minoxidil or finasteride may help if follicles are not dead.
- Advanced Balding: Natural regrowth is unlikely if follicles are inactive or destroyed.
-
Other Causes:
- Hair loss from stress, illness, or nutritional deficiencies might be reversible with treatment.
-
Recommendation:
- Consult a dermatologist or hair specialist to determine the cause and explore treatment options, including medications or hair transplants.

View allI've been using BETNOVATE CREAM regularly for my skin, mostly for fairness and acne, and I'm starting to wonder about the long-term effects. My family doctor mentioned that I shouldn't use it so often. What are the potential side effects of continuing its use? Also, are there safer alternatives that I could consider?
Long-term use of Betnovate cream, a strong steroid, can cause skin thinning, increased acne, pigmentation changes, and may worsen skin issues over time. It's best to stop regular use and consult a dermatologist for safer options, like non-steroid creams, retinoids, or other acne treatments suited to your skin.
