I've got scars on my face from a garlic burn and I'm really worried about them. Do you think these scars are going to be there forever, or is there a chance they'll go away on their own? How long does it usually take for this kind of scar to disappear completely without any treatment?

I'm worried about how dark my face is getting. Do you think it's safe to use Melacare cream to lighten my skin? If it's not a good idea, could you recommend a cream that won't have any side effects?

I'm 26 years old and dealing with quite a bit of white hair in my beard. My doctor suggested using Altris 5 solution to help with reversing it, but I read somewhere that it's mostly effective for people under 25. Is there any truth to this? Is it possible for me to reverse my white beard with this solution?

That could be Premature greying of hair,and thats reversible, consume protein rich foods and maintain healthy lifestyle.

I've just noticed these strange red lines on my left thumb, index finger, and ring finger. They seem to appear in pairs of two. I'm 20, and this happened right after I did a 30-minute mini trampoline workout. Could the workout have something to do with it? Should I be concerned about these marks? What could this be?
