I know this isn't super common in India, and there seems to be a lack of information about it. What are the risks and side effects she should be aware of, and how much does it typically cost? Also, what steps does she need to take to go through with this?

I'm struggling with acne and I've heard that milk could be a factor. Could you suggest an alternative to normal milk that might help with my skin? Also, what type of milk would you recommend for someone dealing with acne issues? Would love some guidance on this!

For acne-prone skin, consider switching to low-hormone, non-dairy milk alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk, which are naturally rich in antioxidants and less likely to trigger hormonal breakouts; among dairy options, goat's milk or A2 cow's milk may be better tolerated due to their unique protein structures and lower hormone levels.
