Question 3

I've been dealing with acne and my face is always oily. I'm currently using Lacne Bar and Acnilite ZN but it seems like the issue is getting out of hand. Could you recommend any medication or other ways to help me control the oil and acne?

Accepted Answer

I recommend adding a topical retinoid cream like Retino-A to your current regimen for acne. Apply a pea-sized amount on the affected areas at night. For oily skin, you can use Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel to control oil production. Additionally, consider using a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser twice a day. Remember to use a non-comedogenic moisturizer like Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF 15 during the day. Make sure to follow this regimen consistently for best results.

Question 4

I'm really curious about something. I've been using Fair and Lovely cream for the past six months, and I'm wondering if there are any side effects I should know about. Also, I'm a bit worried that if I stop using it, my face might get darker again. I...

Accepted Answer

Fair and Lovely cream contains ingredients like hydroquinone, which can cause side effects such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin with long-term use. It is not recommended to use hydroquinone-containing products for extended periods of time without medical supervision. If you stop using the cream, your skin may revert back to its original condition, but it is important to transition to a different skincare routine to maintain the results. I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and guidance on alternative skincare products.

Question 5

I've got a kiss mark on my neck and I'm worried about how to get rid of it. It's just blood that's clotted and left a mark, but it doesn't hurt. Any ideas on what I can do to make it disappear faster?

Accepted Answer

To remove the mark from the kiss mark on your neck, you can apply a cold compress to reduce any swelling and help with the clotting. You can also apply a topical arnica cream to help with bruising. Additionally, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen can help with any discomfort. If the mark persists or if you have any concerns, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

Question 6

Can anyone tell me if Tugain 5 or Tugain 10 is better for hair loss and regrowth? I'm also curious about which one might have fewer side effects.

Accepted Answer

-For hair loss, **Tugain 5%** is generally preferred as it is effective with fewer side effects compared to **Tugain 10%**. Higher concentrations may cause more irritation, so start with the 5% version unless advised otherwise by your doctor.
