View allI've been bitten by an insect and the area is really itchy and red. There's no swelling, but the skin looks reddish and a bit blackish. I've been using T Bact ointment, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be applying. Any advice on what ointments might help?
Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with some pretty significant hair fall and I'm really hoping to put a stop to it and get my hair to be thick and dense again. I've heard about treatments like Minoxidil and Mesotherapy and I'm curious about the average cost for these. Also, once I start treatment, how long can I expect the effects to last?
Minoxidil is more affordable, with costs around 300 to 700 per month, but results only last as long as you continue using it. Mesotherapy is more expensive, typically costing 2,000 to 5,000 per session, and often requires multiple sessions to achieve noticeable results, but it can provide more long-term improvements with maintenance.

I'm 16 and my face looks small compared to my body since I'm 5'11. Is there any natural way to make my face appear bigger without using makeup or surgery?
Facial bone growth stops after puberty; appearance may be enhanced with grooming, posture, or cosmetic fillers—not surgery at your age.
