Blade cut marks (self-inflicted or accidental) can often be improved with treatments like laser therapy, microneedling, or chemical peels, depending on the depth and age of the scars. Plastic surgery is an option for deep or wide scars. Costs vary but can range from ‚Çπ5,000‚Äì‚Çπ50,000 or more per session, depending on the treatment and clinic. A consultation with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon is recommended for a tailored plan.

I've been dealing with some pretty bad itching and rashes all over my body. I already took an anti-allergy pill but it didn't seem to help at all. Before this, I had a fever and took paracetamol for it. Could you suggest something better for these symptoms?

I'm really curious about how safe biotin capsules are. Do they actually help with reducing hair fall and promoting hair growth? If they do, could you also guide me on how much I should be taking?

Biotin capsules are generally considered safe, with minimal side effects, and can help reduce hair fall and promote hair growth by strengthening hair follicles and increasing elasticity; recommended dosage varies from 2,500-10,000 mcg per day, but typical dosages for hair growth are 5,000-7,500 mcg per day, taken orally with food, and it's essential to consult a Dermatologist

Hey, I've been prescribed Dutas 0.5mg and was wondering if I could use Dupecia 0.5mg instead. Are they basically the same thing? I'm concerned about the side effects because they seem quite serious. Is it safe to take, or could I skip it since I'm already applying minoxidil?
