I have a black mole on my face and I really want to get rid of it but I'm scared of surgery. Are there any other treatments that can remove it safely? What options do I have?

Mole removal can be done with laser, radiofrequency, or excision. Laser is less invasive but may need multiple sessions. A dermatologist can guide based on mole type.

Question

I'm experiencing these small pus-filled bumps and redness near my thighs, and it's really concerning me. On top of that, I've been dealing with Keratosis pilaris from my back below the neck down to my waist and above my elbows for about 10 years now. My skin is very sensitive, and I just can't figure out why all this is happening. Could there be a connection between these two issues, and should I be doing something differently with my skincare routine?

Question

I'm really worried about my husband's hair loss. We've been trying a few things like biotin tablets and Tugain 10, but I'm curious about Indulekha hair oil. Do you think it'll help with his hair problems, and are there any side effects we should be aware of?

Question

I've been struggling with really bad tanning on my forehead for a while now. I've tried a bunch of things like kojic acid creams, Sabiglow, and I've even had a yellow peel done. I've also been taking Pinodin G for a couple of months. Right now, I'm using Tazret cream as recommended by my dermatologist, but honestly, I haven't noticed any difference. I work from home, so I'm not out in the sun much, but I still apply a light sunscreen. Can you suggest any effective anti-tanning creams, scrubs, or face packs? I'm really looking for something that works.
