I've been using this Panderm Plus cream, and every time I go out, my skin seems to get darker, even though I put on sunscreen. I'm really thinking about stopping the use of this cream, but I'm not sure how to get my skin back to normal afterward. Do you have any advice on how I can handle this situation?

  1. Gradually taper off: Don't stop using Panderm Plus abruptly. Gradually reduce the frequency and amount applied over 2-3 weeks.
  2. Replace with alternative creams: Consult your doctor or dermatologist for alternative creams that are less likely to cause hyperpigmentation.
  3. Use sunscreen with high SPF: Continue using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with high SPF (at least 30) and reapply every 2 hours.
  4. Wear protective clothing: Cover your skin with clothing, hats, and umbrellas when going out.
  5. Consider vitamin C or niacinamide creams: These creams may help reduce hyperpigmentation and promote skin brightening.

I'm looking for a cream that can help reduce melanin production because I'm trying to lighten my skin tone. I've already given Skin Lite a shot, but it didn't work out as I'd hoped. Can you recommend something effective?

I've been feeling really worried lately. A while back, while I was on vacation, I noticed some swelling under my left eye one night. I used exocin, and the swelling got better, but I started losing hair, and it's not stopping even after a month. I also got the same eye infection in the same eye again. What could be causing this hair loss and recurring infection? Is there something more serious going on? I'm really scared and would appreciate any advice.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called blepharitis, which is inflammation of the eyelids. The recurrence of the eye infection and ongoing hair loss may be related to this underlying issue. I recommend using a combination of antibiotic eye drops like Tobrex (tobramycin) and a mild steroid ointment like Tobradex (tobramycindexamethasone) for the eye infection. Additionally, you can try using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for the hair loss. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage and application instructions for these medications. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm curious about Finax 1mg Tablet for hair loss. I'm worried about the side effects like decreased libido, decreased semen volume, and impotence. Also, if you stop taking the medicine, you might lose the hair you gained. So, what's the point of taking it if you lose your hair when you stop? Does this mean you'd have to keep taking it forever if you don't want to lose hair again?

dermatologist opinion.
