I've been noticing some hair loss around my sideburns, near my ears, and on my forehead, which is already pretty high, and even at the edges. I can feel some inflammation on my scalp in certain spots, although theres nothing visible. Its a bit uncomfortable, especially when I touch those areas. Should I be worried, or is there something I can do about it?

If the inflammation is related to seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff, a medicated shampoo with ketoconazole or salicylic acid may help reduce inflammation. For male pattern baldness, treatments like minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia) can help slow down hair loss and promote regrowth. If its a condition like alopecia areata or psoriasis, your doctor may recommend topical steroids or immune-modulating creams.consult your demat

View allI've been using a benzoyl peroxide face wash and applying deriva BPO and CMS gel as my night cream for over two weeks, but I haven't noticed any improvements. Is this normal? Should I be seeing results by now? I'm kind of worried if I'm doing something wrong. Any advice or suggestions?
The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated. Please call me or send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.,,

I'm struggling with acne scars and dark spots on my face and I'm really curious if taking Evion capsules orally would be safe for me. I'm also in the middle of a weight loss journey; I'm hitting the gym regularly and sticking to a diet plan. My big worry is whether Evion could lead to weight gain. Are there any side effects I should know about?
Evion capsules, which contain Vitamin E, can be beneficial for skin health. You can take Evion 400mg capsules orally once daily. Vitamin E can help improve skin texture and reduce scars and dark spots. Taking Evion capsules should not directly cause weight gain. However, as with any supplement, it is essential to maintain a balanced diet and exercise routine to support your weight loss goals.
