I'm really worried about my hair loss and it seems like Minoxidil has some side effects and you have to take it for life. But I've been trying this Well Grow anti-hair loss serum and nothing's happeningmy hair's still falling out. What's going on? Should I keep using it, and for how long do you think it's safe? And does it have similar side effects to Minoxidil?

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've got oily skin, but fortunately, I don't have any pimples. I'm looking for a facewash that would be suitable for my skin type. Do you have any recommendations?

I've been having some issues ever since I quit smoking cigarettes back in June. I tried putting a cigarette to my mouth a few days without actually smoking, and my lips burned really badly. Ever since then, they've been swelling on and off. I also started vaping around the same time. Now my lips are swollen, itchy, and they look kind of bruised. Do you think this could be related to quitting smoking or starting vaping? What should I do?

That needs evaluation visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
