More Dermatology Health Queries
View allI've been dealing with some skin issues lately, like allergies and more pigmentation than usual. I'm 25, and my doctor suggested I try Kojivit Plus gel for the pigmentation that's been bothering me for the past couple of months. I'm curious if it's a good option for skin whitening too. Should I continue using this gel? Any advice would be really helpful!
If you havent experienced any major irritation or side effects, and your dermatologist has recommended it, continuing the use of Kojivit Plus Gel for pigmentation is likely safe. However, if you notice any signs of worsening irritation or allergy, or if you feel like it's not working after consistent use, I would recommend getting back in touch with your dermatologist to discuss alternative treatments or adjustments.

I've been using Morr F 5 solution for a couple of months now for my hair loss, and I'm starting to see some good early results. However, I'm experiencing a lot of flakes, similar to dandruff, on my scalp. I'm pretty sure the alcohol in the solution is causing this. Do you know of any alternative treatments to Morr F that include both Finasteride and Minoxidil but dont have alcohol?

I'm curious about breast enlargement creams and their effectiveness. Could you explain how these creams work? Are there any potential pros and cons I should be aware of before considering using them?
Breast enlargement creams often claim to enhance size through ingredients like phytoestrogens, but their effectiveness is not scientifically proven, and results, if any, are usually temporary. While they are generally non-invasive, they may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. For lasting changes, consult a specialist to explore safe, evidence-based options.
