I'm really concerned about this baldness issue I'm experiencing. The front of my head has lost a lot of hair, and it looks quite bald now. A few months ago, I only noticed it when I applied oil, but now it's visible all the time, and my hair's gotten thinner. Can you recommend a permanent solution for this? Also, is there a difference between hair transplantation and PRP therapy, or are they the same? Which one would be the best and safest option? I could really use some guidance here since I'm quite worried about losing more hair.

I'm taking a 5mg levocet tablet for a skin reaction on my face and have been on it for 6 days now. Since I don't have any more itching or redness, I'm wondering if I should stop the medicine or keep going. My doctor originally suggested I take it for 10 days. What do you think I should do?

You can stop taking Levocet 5mg tablet since you no longer have itching or redness on your face. It is advisable to complete the course as prescribed by your doctor, which in your case is 10 days. Since you have already taken it for 6 days and your symptoms have resolved, you can safely discontinue the medication.

I've noticed that the skin under my chin has gotten dark because I've been using a plucker to remove the hair there. Is it possible to use chemical peeling to lighten the dark skin and follow up with laser treatments to stop the hair growth?

I'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?
