I'm really struggling with acne and pigmentation issues that I've had for the past two months. My doctor put me on zithrox 250 three times a week for three months, and I'm using acnicin sunscreen and acne uv gel with SPF 30, plus a hyperpigmentation cream with tyrodin, kojic acid, arbutin, vitamin C, and vitamin E. The acne's cleared up, but I still have some marks and scars left, especially on my cheeks. Any advice on what I can do next?

View allI'm really worried about my hair. For the past three years, the temples on my scalp have been losing hair really fast, and even the front center part seems to be thinning out more every day. It's frustrating because, on top of that, my hair is also turning white and falling out. Ive tried using minoxidil 5% solution and even took amla ras, but nothing seems to be working. What should I do next to save my hair?
Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab follihair once ,daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.

I'm starting to eat more dry fruits like figs, apricots, and almonds. But I'm a bit worried they might cause acne. I know everyone says theyre healthy, but I have sensitive skin, and I'm not sure if these can trigger breakouts. Have you seen this happen before? Should I be cautious with certain types like black raisins or walnuts?

My sister cut her hand with a blade about a year ago, and she still has the cut marks. What can we do to help fade these scars or make them less noticeable? Any tips or treatments would be really appreciated.
Topical Creams 1. Silicone-based creams: Creams containing silicone can help flatten and soften raised scars. 2. Hydroquinone creams: Creams with hydroquinone can help reduce hyperpigmentation associated with scarring. It's essential to consult a dermatologist before starting any treatment. They will assess the scar and recommend the best course of treatment.
