Question 1

Is minoxidil something that's a permanent fix for hair loss, or does it only work while you're using it? I'm a bit concerned about having to apply it indefinitely. Plus, I've been wondering if yoga might help with male pattern baldness. If it does, how long should I stick with it to see any results? By the way, I've noticed Dr. M.K Aggarwal tends to give the same advice for hair loss issues, so I'm hoping for a fresh perspective.

Accepted Answer

Minoxidil is not a permanent cure for male pattern baldness. It is effective in promoting hair growth as long as it is being applied regularly. One popular brand of minoxidil is Rogaine. Yoga alone is not a proven cure for male pattern baldness. While stress reduction techniques like yoga may help improve overall health and potentially reduce hair loss caused by stress, it is not a guaranteed cure for male pattern baldness. It is recommended to continue practicing yoga as part of a healthy lifestyle. For male pattern baldness treatment, you can consider using minoxidil as mentioned earlier.

Question 2

I've been using Panderm Plus cream for over a year, but I would stop and start using it again. Initially, my skin was clear, but then I started getting one or two pimples. I saw a doctor who told me to stop using the cream because it has steroids. Now I'm using Derma Dew soap and Kojic cream for the pimple marks. I'm really worried about the effects of the steroid on my skin. Can you tell me more about the side effects, and will the new products help with the pimple marks?

Accepted Answer

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

Question 3

I've had a cut mark on my forehead for about 12 years now, and I'm really interested in getting it removed. How would that process work? What kind of costs should I expect, and how long does it typically take to get rid of a scar like this?

Accepted Answer

You can get rid of the scar, visit Plastic surgeon for appropriate management,cost and duration depends on the size and depth of the scar.

I've been dealing with this issue for about 5 months now. My face has been releasing this strange, white powdery stuff, and when I scratch it, my skin feels really tight and flaky. Any idea what might be going on with my skin?

Kozicare cream is advised.Side-effects include itching and hypersensitivity reactions
