I'm worried because my skin has gotten tanned, but apart from that, it's shiny and healthy-looking. I really want to make it fair again. What can I do to specifically deal with the tan and get back to a fair complexion?

wash your face twice daily and apply good moisturizer and sunscreen, if it doesnt gets resolved and becoming worse, visit dermatologist for evaluating the cause of tanning and appropriate treatment.

I'm really worried about my hair falling out a lot lately. It's been happening for a while, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you suggest any ways to help stop the hair fall or maybe some treatments that could help me get it under control?

To overcome hair fall problem, you can try using minoxidil solution applied directly on the scalp. Additionally, you can take biotin supplements 10,000 mcg once daily to promote hair growth. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair. Regular scalp massages can also help improve blood circulation to the hair follicles.

I'm going through some serious hair loss since I had dengue back in March. It's been really tough, especially since I'm a med student myself. My doc initially suggested minoxidil, but after checking it out online, I stopped using it after about 10 days. My hair fall seemed to get worse, so I went back, and now I'm on Percos hair serum. I'm really anxious and curious if Percos has any side effects and if it's okay to stop using it at some point. Also, I've heard about cysteine treatment at Lakme, and I wonder if I can try that alongside my current treatment. I'm using Revilus shampoo and taking Actilife and Antoxid. Any advice?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
