I'm dealing with really rough and frizzy hair right now and I'm thinking about getting a keratin treatment. But I've also got a lot of dandruff at the moment. Is it a bad idea to go ahead with the keratin treatment while I'm dealing with dandruff, or should I wait until it clears up? Also, does a keratin treatment lead to any hair loss? Would love some advice.

I've noticed that even at 26, I hardly have any facial hair. I mean, there's a bit of a moustache, but it's not really thick or long. Sometimes I worry about it and feel a bit down. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned about a lack of facial hair? What could be causing this?

Normal. Genetic predisposition, dermat opinion is advised to the pt.

2 days ago, I accidentally touched the hot silencer of my bike with the lower part of my leg just above my feet. I quickly did a cold compress and have been using Silverex Ionic on it since. Now, the skin has turned dark and dry, and I'm noticing a lot of blisters that keep breaking. Most of the time a water-like substance is coming out of them. What medications should I take? I'm also attaching some pictures from when the accident happened and what it looks like now. Any advice would be appreciated.

I've been dealing with this pus-filled scar that turned into a keloid about a year ago. Its really painful, and Ive seen multiple doctors, but nothing seems to work. I came across some info about injection shots for this kind of thing. Do you offer those treatments? And are there any side effects I should know about?
