I've just gotten over a bout of chickenpox and it seems like I'm all cured now after about 15 days. I'm wondering how long I should wait before it's safe to have sex with my wife. What do you think?

yes you can do because Chickenpox is contagious for one to two days before the appearance of the rash and until the blisters have dried and become scabs.

What's the cost of getting laser treatment for tanning on my face? I'd really like to know about any changes I might see afterward and if there are any side effects. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it generally safe? I'm really curious to hear your thoughts on this.

The cost of laser treatment for your face regarding tanning can range from Rs 1,000 to Rs 30,000 per session in India. The treatment can help reduce tanning, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone by targeting melanin and promoting collagen production. As for side effects, you may experience minor and temporary issues like redness, pain, or infections, but these can be minimized by choosing a reputable clinic and experienced dermatologist.
