I'm really struggling with dandruff and I've even started getting small wounds on my scalp. I actually saw a dermatologist about a year ago, and they told me to use this lotion at night I can't remember the name and wash my hair with Kenz Sal shampoo. It helped for a bit but now the problem is back. What should I do about this issue?

I'm trying to figure out which Vitamin C would be best for me to use on my melasma. I want something that can be applied topically or taken orally before using sunscreen. I've heard it might help protect against sun damage, but I'm a bit lost on which kind might work best. Can you offer some advice?

I've been using Morr F 5 solution for a couple of months now for my hair loss, and I'm starting to see some good early results. However, I'm experiencing a lot of flakes, similar to dandruff, on my scalp. I'm pretty sure the alcohol in the solution is causing this. Do you know of any alternative treatments to Morr F that include both Finasteride and Minoxidil but dont have alcohol?
