I'm curious about this change in my treatment plan. My new doctor switched me from minoxidil to proanagen solution and kera XL serum. She mentioned it's to avoid dependency on minoxidil. Does this sound like the right approach to you?

This can be a reasonable approach to prevent dependency on minoxidil. Proanagen solution contains minoxidil along with other ingredients to promote hair growth, while Kera XL serum is likely a hair care product to support overall hair health. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and use these medications as prescribed. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, please consult your doctor for further guidance.

My face seems a lot darker compared to my chest and stomach, and I'm usually on the fairer side. I've been walking around 4 km every day to college, sometimes in the sun, and I'm wondering if this is a tan. How can I get my usual skin tone back? Also, I have quite a few dark pimple marks on my face. Are there any home remedies I can try?
