View allI've just started using Lomela cream and Im really curious about a few things. Is Lomela actually good for my skin? How long is it safe for me to keep using it? Once my pigmentation improves, should I stop using it altogether? Also, I'm worried that if I discontinue using Lomela, might my acne come back because my skin has gotten used to the cream? I'd love to get some advice on this.
Lomela is a topical cream that contains a combination of hydroquinone, tretinoin, and mometasone. It is commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation issues such as melasma, dark spots, and skin discoloration. The hydroquinone in Lomela helps to lighten the skin, while tretinoin promotes skin cell turnover and mometasone reduces inflammation. However, it is important to use Lomela under the guidance of a healthcare professional as prolonged use can have side effects like skin thinning and irritation. How long can I use this? The duration of Lomela use should be determined by your healthcare provider based on your skin condition. It is usually not recommended to use hydroquinone-containing products for more than 3-4 months continuously. Should I skip the usage after my pigmentation problem got reduced? Once your pigmentation issue has improved, your healthcare provider may advise you to gradually reduce the frequency of Lomela application or switch to a milder maintenance treatment to prevent relapse. After the discontinuation, is there any possibility that my acne problems have started again for the discontinuation as the skin has already adopted the cream? There is a possibility that acne problems may reoccur after discontinuing Lomela, especially if the underlying cause of acne is not addressed. It is important to follow a proper skincare routine and consult with your healthcare provider for alternative acne management strategies to prevent breakouts post-discontinuation of Lomela.

I'm 17 and dealing with some major hair fall issues. It's got me a bit worried. I've already seen a doctor, and they suggested some oil and ayurvedic medicine. I'm just wondering if there's anything else I could be doing to help stop it. Is there something specific I should look out for or any other advice you might have?

I'm thinking about starting the Hair Bless tablets because I've got pretty thin hair and I'm really hoping for some growth. But I'm a bit worried about possible side effects. Do you think it's worth trying, or should I be cautious about anything specific with these tablets?
Hair Bless tablet contains biotin, folic acid, and minerals which can help promote hair growth and improve hair health. It is generally safe to use and side effects are rare. However, some people may experience minor side effects such as stomach upset or skin reactions. For thin hair, you can try using Hair Bless tablet along with a topical minoxidil solution like Mintop. Minoxidil can help stimulate hair growth and improve hair thickness.
