I've been dealing with some pimples on my face, and my dermatologist advised me to use Melapik Ever cream at night along with the Lumiedge bathing bar. After trying it for just one day, I started experiencing itching, burning sensations, and extreme dryness on my face. Plus, my skin has gotten noticeably darker. Now, the doctor suggested switching to Kojiglow Forte cream. Could you let me know if this is the right move? I'm a bit concerned.

It is possible that your skin is sensitive to the ingredients in these products. Kojiglow Forte cream contains Kojic acid, Arbutin, and Vitamin C which are commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the skin. If you continue to experience itching, burning, extreme dryness, or any other discomfort, I recommend stopping the use of all products and consulting with your dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm really curious about how well Finpecia works if I stick to using it for the rest of my life. Does it mean I won't lose any more hair? Also, I'm having a hard time deciding between Finpecia and Finax. Is one better than the other in terms of maintaining my hair?

Finpecia is a brand name for finasteride, which is commonly used to treat male pattern baldness. It is effective in slowing down hair loss and promoting hair regrowth in some individuals. However, it may not fully restore all lost hair. Consistent and long-term use of finpecia can help maintain the existing hair and prevent further hair loss. Both finpecia and finax contain the same active ingredient, finasteride. Therefore, they are equally effective in treating hair loss. The choice between finpecia and finax can depend on individual preferences and tolerability. It is important to follow the recommended dosage as prescribed by your healthcare provider for optimal results.

how to use tea tree oil for acne

1. Combine 1 to 2 drops of tea tree oil with 12 drops of a carrier oil. However, be careful using any additional oils on your face. Any type of oil product has the potential to worsen acne. 2. Before applying diluted tea tree oil to your face, do a small patch test on the inside of your elbow. Signs of skin sensitivity or an allergic reaction include itchiness, redness, swelling, and burning. 3. Before applying the oil, wash your face with a gentle cleanser for acne-prone skin, and pat it dry. 4. Gently apply diluted tea tree oil by dabbing it on your blemishes with a cotton round or pad. 5. Allow to dry. Follow up with your usual moisturizer. 6. Repeat morning and night.
