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 really struggling with a lot of hair loss, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice on how to deal with this issue? Also, if you could recommend a good shampoo or hair oil that might help, I would really appreciate it.

Hair loss can be caused by various factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, stress, and nutritional deficiencies. To help reduce hair loss, you can try using Minoxidil solution 5% applied twice daily on the scalp. Additionally, taking Biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can also promote hair growth. For the best hair wash shampoo, you can try using Nizoral shampoo twice a week to help with dandruff and hair loss. For oil, you can use Rogaine foam once daily on the scalp to promote hair regrowth. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication or supplement regimen.

I'm really worried and could use some advice. A while back, I used this ointment called Lobate GM on my face when I had just a few pimples. I went through 2 or 3 tubes of it, hoping it would help, but my skin got way worse. I ended up seeing a dermatologist and did a treatment for six months. Now, I've still got these red marks where the pimples were and I'm not sure what to do about them. Could you give me some guidance on what might help fade these marks?

It sounds like you may be dealing with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from the acne. To help lighten the red marks left by the pimples, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream, applied once daily at night. Additionally, using a sunscreen with high SPF during the day is important to prevent further darkening of the marks. Make sure to follow up with your skin specialist for further guidance and monitoring of your progress.
