I'm a bit confused about a prescription I got. The dermatologist recommended Trilast Hair solution and Q Sera hair serum. Do I need to use both, or just one of them? I'm not sure what's best for my hair, and I really want to get it right. Can you help clarify this?

You were prescribed two different products: Trilast Hair solution and Q sera hair serum. You should use both as per the dermatologist's instructions. Trilast Hair solution is typically applied once daily on the scalp, while Q sera hair serum is usually applied twice daily on the affected areas. Follow the dosage and application instructions provided by your dermatologist for the best results.
