I'm wondering if Folica hair tincture actually helps increase hair density or if it just manages hair fall? I'm really hoping for a product that can boost the thickness of my hair. If it's only good for controlling hair fall, could you recommend a good hair serum that can really help with increasing hair density?

Folica hair tincture primarily helps to control hair fall. If you are looking to increase the density of your hair, I recommend using Minoxidil solution. You can apply Minoxidil solution (brand name Rogaine) directly to the scalp twice a day to promote hair growth and increase hair density.

I'm really concerned about these changes and wondering what might be causing them. Could it be related to the Follihair? What should I do about these issues?

I'm a bit unsure about which to use for my woundshould I go with soframycin or cipladine powder? I usually clean the wound with hot water and Dettol, then let it dry before applying the powder. But when I clean it again the next day, it's kind of tricky. The wound is still wet, and there's some fluid coming out. Would using soframycin be a better option in this case?

It sounds like you're dealing with a wound that's still in the healing process and is somewhat moist, which is quite common in the initial stages of healing.Both can be effective, but Soframycin is usually recommended for burns, surgical wounds, or where moisture needs to be controlled, as it helps with tissue regeneration without drying the wound too much.
