Can I use vitamin E Evion 400 on my face and hair? I've heard from a lot of people that it's great for skin, but I'm unsure if it's safe or effective. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it okay to try?

  1. Topical Use vs. Oral Use:

    • Evion 400 is designed as an oral supplement. While some use vitamin E oil topically, it's not the intended use for these capsules.
  2. Skin Sensitivity:

    • Perform a patch test on a small skin area before applying to your face to check for allergic reactions or irritation.
  3. Benefits:

    • Vitamin E has antioxidant properties that may moisturize skin and improve hair health, though effectiveness varies.
  4. Potential Issues:

    • Using capsule contents on skin can clog pores or cause breakouts, especially if you have oily or acne-prone skin.
  5. Alternatives:

    • Consider products specifically formulated for skin or hair care for safer and more effective use.

For personalized advice, consult a dermatologist. Proceed cautiously and monitor your skin’s response.

I'm using minoxidil once a day for my hair and I'm wondering how often I should be shampooing. Also, could you suggest which type of shampoo would be best to use with this treatment?

If you are using minoxidil once a day daily, it is recommended to shampoo your hair at least 2-3 times a week. You can use a mild shampoo that is gentle on your scalp and hair, such as Nizoral shampoo. Make sure to follow the instructions on the shampoo bottle for best results.

I've been dealing with these lichen planus spots for a while now. Even after treatment, they seem to come back. I'm really looking for something that's a permanent fix. Could you help me find the best treatment that prevents them from regrowing? I'm starting to feel a bit frustrated with this cycle.

Lichen planus spots can be treated with topical corticosteroids such as Clobetasol cream applied twice daily for several weeks. In more severe cases, oral corticosteroids like Prednisone may be prescribed for a short period. For long-term management and prevention of regrowth, topical immunomodulators like Tacrolimus ointment can be used. Additionally, antihistamines like Loratadine can help with itching. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed.
