I have these stubborn stitch marks on my face and they're really bothering me. What's the best way to get rid of them completely? Would laser treatment or surgery work better, or should I try cosmetic creams or gels first? Any recommendations for specific products that might help?

To minimize the appearance of stitch marks on the face, a combination of topical treatments, professional interventions, and good skincare practices can be helpful. While surgical scar revision or laser treatments may offer more significant results, starting with topical creams and gels is a good first step.

Question

So, I'm a 32-year-old guy and a couple of days ago, my finger got pinched in a door. It was just a tiny part of the skin, so I didn't pay much attention at the time. But then yesterday, I noticed this black spot on that same part of my finger, like under the skin. Do you think it could be a blood clot or is there something else going on here?

Question

I'm really worried about my hand. The back of my palm has turned black, and it's super dry. I've been using olive oil for the past four days, hoping it'll help, but I'm not sure if it's working. I've also been using hand sanitizer and Dettol hand wash a lot. Could that be affecting my skin? Is this why my hand looks like this? I've got some photos of it too.

Question

I'm really concerned about my hair loss and I've been thinking about trying the hairbless tablets. If I stop taking them, will my hair fall out again? Also, is it safe to start with these tablets and how long should I take them for?
