I've had grey hair for 34 years, and now Ive noticed my beard is turning grey-white too. I tried using Altris gel as my doctor suggested for 34 months, but it didn't help. Is there any real cure for this issue? It really concerns me.

Altris gel you will have to use it for a year or so to see results. And deficiencies have to be corrected as well. There are clinical studies showing results with this but you will have to do it long term .

I'm really concerned about my very deep acne scars and was wondering how effective laser treatment might be. Are there any side effects to worry about with this treatment? How many sessions do you think it usually takes to see results for acne scars? Also, if you have any idea, how much would one session typically cost in Bangalore? Are there any specialists you would recommend for laser treatment?

Common side effects may include redness, swelling, or temporary changes in skin pigmentation. The number of sittings required for acne scar treatment can vary depending on the severity of the scars, but typically multiple sessions are needed for optimal results.
