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.

I'm worried because whenever I masturbate, I start getting acne on my face. Is there any treatment or medicine that can help with acne so I don't have to stop enjoying my sex life? I'm thinking of quitting masturbation for now, but I'm hoping there's another solution. What can I do?

Acne can be managed with topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. You can also consider using oral medications like doxycycline or isotretinoin under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Additionally, maintaining good hygiene, avoiding oily skincare products, and following a healthy diet can also help improve acne. Remember to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.

I've got these bald patches on the front part of my head, and my doctor said it's hormonal. They've advised me to use Hair4U 2 daily in the evenings. Now, I'm thinking about trying onion juice before washing my hair, but I'm not sure if it's okay to use both the onion juice and the Hair4U spray together. Can I mix these treatments, or should I be careful about it?

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. consult dermatologist
