I've been dealing with malar bags and someone mentioned it might be due to an underactive thyroid. If that's true, could medication help improve them? I've been using tretinoin and taking a collagen supplement, but these bags really make me look older. Are there any other treatments or options you would suggest for these slight malar bags?

I'm really worried because I've noticed some of my hair falling out. Is it possible to regrow it using Indulekha or any other hair oil? I'd really appreciate any advice or suggestions.

While using oils like Indulekha can help nourish the scalp and hair, it may not be sufficient to regrow lost hair. For hair regrowth, you may consider using minoxidil solution, which is available under brand names like Rogaine. You can apply 1 ml of minoxidil solution twice daily on the scalp to promote hair regrowth. Additionally, it is important to maintain a healthy diet, manage stress, and avoid harsh hair treatments to support hair regrowth.
