I've noticed I've developed a bunch of new tiny moles, each about 1mm or smaller, on my hands and legs. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what might be causing these new moles to appear. Any ideas on what this could mean?

The development of new moles, especially in areas like hands and legs, can be due to various factors such as genetics, sun exposure, and hormonal changes. It is important to monitor these moles for any changes in size, shape, or color. To help prevent further development of new moles, it is recommended to avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly.

I'm struggling with hair loss and my PRP treatment doesn't seem to be working. It's really getting me down because I've spent a lot of money, and I'm still losing hair, especially at the front. I'm desperately looking for effective suggestions so I can regain my confidence. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Only prp will not work. You are suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. consult dermatologist

I recently had my first session of fractional CO2 laser treatment, and about 20 days later, I had to spend some time outside in the sun for work. I did use sunscreen, but my skin still seems to have been affected. It's red and feels really tight. I'm kind of worried and wondering if I should use Fucidin cream now. Is the damage permanent, or can it be fixed? Would really appreciate some advice.

Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .
