I'm a 22-year-old female and I've been dealing with thinning hair for the past 2 to 3 years. My scalp is becoming more visible, and just recently, I noticed my frontal hairline seems to be receding. I also happen to be obese and often use heat styling on my hair. I'm really concerned and curious to know if there's a way I can get my hair back to its former state. What can I do to recover my hair?

I'm looking for a skin whitening cream that works well for both my face and body. I want something that provides maximum benefits and shows quick results. Can you recommend a good one?

Sun tan, overweight, pigmentation disorders like acanthosis nigricans or melasma, nutritional deficiency etc are some conditions. Unless someone examines you, we cannot know the cause. Unless we find out the cause it is difficult and pointless to treat consult dermatologist

I accidentally put undiluted Dettol on my nose and chin a few days ago, and when it started burning, I washed it off. This morning, I noticed that the skin feels really tight, dry, and flaky. When I tried to peel it off, the skin underneath looks red and is still burning. I'm worried about how to treat this and avoid any scars. What should I do?

No need to worry there is no further complications with this, and the reaction might be due to concentrated Dettol, it usually heals on its own if the exposed area is large and giving you pain , visit your Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with vitiligo and noticed white patches on my fingers and a bit on my lower lip. Are there any cosmetic treatments that can help without surgery? Can this condition be cured? I'd like to know my options so I can plan a visit for proper treatment.

Vitiligo can't be cured, but topical treatments and phototherapy help—cosmetic camouflage and lasers can improve appearance.
