Is it okay to get a dermaroller treatment in the second week of May after taking isotroin 20 mg for just three days at the end of April (28th to 30th)? I've heard you shouldn't get treatments right after accutane, but isn't that advice mostly for those who complete a full course? Would those 60 mg in total affect skin healing?

View allIs there any real medical evidence that using onion juice can help with hair growth? If so, how should I apply it and in what form? I've been losing hair, particularly from the crown and have a receding hairline. I tried minoxidil and multivitamins, but they haven't really worked. What else can I do?
There is some evidence to suggest that onion juice may help enhance hair growth due to its sulfur content which may improve blood circulation to the hair follicles. You can apply onion juice directly to your scalp, leave it on for about 30 minutes, and then wash it off with a mild shampoo. You can do this 1-2 times a week. However, please note that individual results may vary and it may take some time to see any noticeable effects. You can also consider using a hair growth shampoo containing minoxidil.

I recommend using Clotrimazole cream, applying it to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.
