I'm noticing that the skin on my fingertips is suddenly getting thicker and kind of dry. Its happening on both my hand and foot fingers. I used to have really soft fingertips before, so I'm a bit concerned about this change. The skin is so thick that I actually have to shape them. I generally have oily skin, so this is quite new for me. What could be causing this?

View allI've got really thin facial hair, and it's not growing in the way I'd like. Do you have any advice on how I can get a fuller, thicker beard? Also, what's your take on using laser treatment for this issue?
To promote fuller and thicker beard growth, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% applied topically on the face once daily. Additionally, taking biotin supplements can also help improve hair growth. Make sure to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair growth. As for laser treatment for beard growth, it is not a commonly recommended option. Laser treatments are more commonly used for hair removal rather than hair growth. It's best to stick with topical treatments and supplements for promoting beard growth.

I've heard about a medicine called REFOLLIUM that might help regrow her hair. Is it safe and effective for her condition?
