I'm using Bontress leave-on lotion and I'm really curious about how effective it is and how long it might take to help with my hair fall. I've switched from using Hair For You 10 because it seemed to cause more hair fall and I didn't want to keep using it forever. My hair growth seems okay, but the hair fall has increased with the previous solution, which is why I decided to try Bontress. Could you let me know how many days it typically takes to see a reduction in hair fall with this treatment?

Bontress leave-on lotion, containing saw palmetto, biotin, and keratin, may help reduce hair fall by blocking dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone contributing to hair loss; while individual results vary, some users report noticeable improvements within 2-4 weeks, with significant reductions in hair fall after 8-12 weeks of consistent use;

I'm noticing these white spots or bumps at the corners of my lips, and I'm not sure why they're there or how to get rid of them. Also, my lips have become quite dark, and I don't even smoke. What could be causing this, and what steps can I take to improve it? Would love some guidance on this.

dermatologist opinion is advised.

I've noticed my hair is falling out really fast these days, like 30-40 strands every day, and my hairline seems to be receding daily. I started doing this ancient yoga thing I found online called Balayam nail rubbing, and some reviews mentioned there's usually an initial shedding phase of around 3 months. They said the hair fall would stop after that, but it's not happening for me. So, I'm a bit worried because I quit doing the technique, and my hair fall has increased. Also, hair loss runs in my familymy dad was half baldand my diet is kind of low on protein. I'm just trying to figure out how to slow down the hair loss, and it would be amazing if it could stop altogether. Any advice or recommendations?

I've got this persistent dry skin peeling just above my upper lip, and it's been quite annoying. I've tried using Cetaphil and some Vaseline petroleum jelly, but nothing's really working. Do you have any other suggestions or ideas on what might help? It's starting to worry me a bit.
