I've had this dark horizontal line across my nose for the past two years, and nothing seems to help. It's embarrassing, and I've tried so many things, including a Q-Switch laser treatment that only slightly lightened it. Retino gel hasn't worked either, and I'm worried because I'm running out of options and can't afford expensive treatments. Could you suggest anything else I might try to get rid of this?

View allI've just gone through 9 sessions of laser therapy for my skin, and now I'm wondering if it's okay to use benzoyl peroxide on my face afterward. Are there any specific things I need to be cautious about after the laser treatment? Also, I've got a wedding coming up, and I'm thinking about getting a cosmetic facial about 15 days after the laser resurfacing. Do you think it'll be safe to do that?
Yes you can get it done,follow your doctors advice and consume protiene and vitamin rich foods

Can you tell me if it's okay to oil my hair while I'm using minoxidil? I'm a bit confused about how often I should be applying oil, like is there a recommended frequency per week? I'm currently using minoxidil and just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.
When using minoxidil, it is generally recommended to avoid applying oil to the scalp as it may interfere with the absorption of the medication. However, you can still apply oil to the lengths of your hair to keep it nourished and hydrated. It is best to apply the oil to the hair at least 2-3 hours before or after applying minoxidil to ensure proper absorption of the medication. You can do this 1-2 times a week, depending on your hair's needs.

I'm worried about a burn scar I've had for about a month. There was a fire accident at my house, and I ended up with a superficial burn. It seems like only the first layer of my skin was affected. Is there anything specific I should do to help it heal better or reduce scarring?
