I'm wondering if Femcinol A gel is effective in getting rid of acne and acne scars? I've been using it for a week now and I'm curious if it usually takes longer to see results. Could you let me know what to expect?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Femcinol A gel contains Clindamycin and Nicotinamide which are effective in treating acne. It may take some time to show noticeable results, typically around 6-8 weeks of regular use. It is important to continue using it as prescribed by your healthcare provider for the best outcome.

View allI recently stopped taking my iron tablets and I've noticed that my skin is getting more pigmented. I'm really curious if this will go away now that I've quit the pills. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I've noticed my hairline is receding, especially around the temple and frontal areas, and I tried using Minokem like my dermatologist recommended, but it doesn't seem to be working. I still have these baby hairs on my scalp. What's worrying me is that while there's no baldness on my dad's side, there is on my mom's - my uncle and grandfather are both bald. Could this be something genetic from my mom's side? Is there anything else I should try or consider?

I've been wondering if there's a way to permanently reduce melanin in my skin. I'm a bit concerned about the safety aspects too, like are there any side effects or risks I should know about when using creams that lower melanin levels? I want to make sure I'm taking the right steps to avoid any skin diseases. What do you think?
Reducing melanin permanently is not possible, as melanin production is a natural process in the body. However, there are ways to lighten the skin temporarily using topical creams containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids. It is important to use these creams as directed by a dermatologist to avoid any potential side effects.
