Hey, can you tell me how long I should be using Kojivit Ultra Gel? Is this something I'm supposed to use for my whole life, or is it just for a certain period? I'm a bit confused and would really appreciate some guidance on this.

Kojivit Ultra gel is typically used for a duration of 2-4 months to see visible results in skin lightening and pigmentation reduction. However, it is not meant for lifelong use. It is recommended to use it as per the guidance of your dermatologist and then take a break from the treatment to assess the results. If needed, your doctor may suggest a maintenance regimen or alternative treatments for long-term management.

I'm a bit worried about my hair situation, specifically on the top and crown area. I've attached a picture for reference. Will using Minoxidil 5% help with this, and also, can it bring back my receding hairline? I'm really looking for some advice here.

An increase in resting heart rate from 60 BPM to 88 BPM without any significant changes in medication, exercise, or diet may indicate an underlying issue. It is recommended to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In some cases, medications such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol may be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. The usual dosage for Metoprolol for heart rate control is 25-100 mg once or twice daily, as prescribed by your doctor.
