I'm a 23-year-old guy and I'm kind of worried because I still haven't started growing a beard or mustache. Do you have any tips or advice on how I can grow facial hair?

To grow a beard and mustache, try maintaining a healthy diet rich in protein, biotin, and vitamins, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep, reducing stress, and using beard care products, along with considering supplements like biotin and vitamin D after consulting a doctor

I'm a 21-year-old guy and this morning, I noticed two mustard-yellow spots that are about 4x5 cm. There's no swelling or pain, but I feel a bit of numbness when I press on them. I've never experienced anything like this before and I don't have a history of liver issues. Plus, I haven't bumped or injured myself recently. Do you have any idea what it could be?

I've been using Melacare for about 4 years now and I'm thinking of stopping. I'm a bit worried though, if I stop using it, will my skin be able to recover on its own or am I going to have to deal with hyperpigmentation forever?

Stopping Melacare may cause: 1. Rebound hyperpigmentation (temporary) 2. Skin recovery with proper skincare and sun protection 3. Ongoing hyperpigmentation management Post-Melacare skincare: 1. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) 2. Moisturize with a gentle moisturizer 3. Exfoliate regularly 4. Consider alternative treatments
