I'm trying to decide between Opexa gel and Mederma for scar removal and I'm wondering which one works better. Can you also recommend a good cream specifically for acne scars?

I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss over the past two months and started using Mintop 2 about 20 days ago. However, it feels like the hair loss has actually increased since I began using it. I remember last time I tried it for a month, and it seemed to help stop the hair loss. I'm 23 and female. What do you think could be happening? Could it just take more time to work, or should I be concerned?

you can switch to higher dose of topical minoxidil under trichologist guidance, before you have to check the cause of hair fall which could be due to androgen effect, any dermatophytic infection etc., consultation with Dermatologist and appropriate approach would help you.
