I'm really worried about a burn scar from Dettol. Does anyone know whether it's going to be a permanent mark or will it eventually fade away? And if it does heal, how long does it normally take for new skin to develop?

View allI'm looking for a good non-alcoholic minoxidil topical solution because the one I'm using, Mintop from Dr. Reddy's, is making my scalp really itchy. Any recommendations?
You can consider alternatives like Minicheck F lotion, which is a non-alcoholic minoxidil topical solution. Another option is Traya's Minoxidil 5%, an alcohol-free solution that uses advanced lipid technology to promote hair growth.

Is there any way to fix the side effects of Betnovate cream? I've been using it on my face for about 6 months and had no idea it was such a strong steroid cream. It's been two years and the side effects are still bothering me. I can't even look at myself in the mirror because my face is completely red and covered with acne up to my neck. I tried IPL last winter, but it didn't make any difference. My face is also super dry now. I'm considering PRP, but I'm not sure if it's the right way to go. Any advice?
The prolonged use of Betnovate cream, a potent topical corticosteroid, can lead to severe side effects like redness, acne, dryness, and skin atrophy; to address these issues, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized guidance, and potential treatments may include: topical treatments like retinoids, antibiotics, or hydroquinone; laser therapy or intense pulsed light (IPL) to reduce redness and promote collagen production; platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which may help stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture; and sun protection, moisturizers, and gentle skincare routines to manage dryness and sensitivity

I'm a 30-year-old guy and my hair's been thinning out with some mild bald spots showing up. My dermatologist recommended I take Finax 1 Tablet once every day, but I've heard it could have sexual side effects. Could you tell me if these side effects are common or if they might cause problems with family planning in the future? I'm a bit concerned about how it could impact me sexually as time goes on. Would love to hear your thoughts.
