I've been dealing with this stubborn acne on the back of my head for a while now. I tried taking Cifran for a month and then switched to Droxyl, using beta gel at the same time, but nothing seems to be working. The acne is even spreading to my forehead, and my skin is turning red. What could be going wrong, and what should I do next?

I've been losing my hair, and I think it's because of the inorganic shampoo I've been using. I'm really worried and want to switch to an organic shampoo. Also, I'm curious about what kind of lotion I should use along with a derma roller. Any advice on this?

I've been using Cosglo gel for two months but haven't seen any results yet. Is there a specific time I should be applying it to help with dark spots, or should I be doing something else? I'm starting to worry if it's actually effective. Can you give me any advice on this?
