I've been taking Finasteride 1mg every day, but I'm still dealing with dandruff even though I'm using Scalpe Plus Shampoo. Could this be related to the change in seasons or is something else going on? I'm worried because it feels like I'm losing about 20 to 25 hairs daily. Can you help me understand what's happening?

I've been using Panderm cream for a while, but after learning about its side effects, I stopped. My doctor then prescribed Deriva CMS gel and another cream to treat the rashes and small pimples I got from Panderm. The rashes have improved, but I'm worried about what's next because I can't stop using the gel without risking the rashes coming back. Plus, my skin has become really dry. Can you recommend what kind of cream I should use now?

use doctor prescribed cream only

I'm really worried about the effects of pollution on my skin. I've been noticing that my skin is darkening really fast, and I'm thinking about using salon detan and bleach treatments to help with it. Are these treatments actually effective, or could they potentially be harmful to my skin in the long run? I'm looking for some advice on what might be the best way to handle this issue.

Detan and bleach treatments are popular salon services aimed at reducing skin darkening and hyperpigmentation. However, it's essential to weigh their effectiveness against potential risks. Detan Treatment Detan treatments typically involve a combination of exfoliating agents, like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), and brightening agents, such as vitamin C or licorice extract. These treatments can help: 1. Exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. 2. Reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and dark spots. 3. Improve skin texture and tone. However, detan treatments may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with sensitive skin. Potential side effects include: 1. Skin irritation or redness 2. Dryness or flakiness 3. Increased sun sensitivity Bleach Treatment Bleach treatments, on the other hand, involve the application of a strong chemical agent to lighten the skin. These treatments can be harsh and may lead to: 1. Skin irritation, redness, or burns 2. Dryness, flakiness, or skin cracking 3. Increased risk of infections or scarring 4. Uneven skin tone or patchiness It's essential to note that bleach treatments can be damaging, especially if done frequently or without proper care. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends avoiding bleach treatments altogether.
