I've noticed that the skin under my chin has gotten dark because I've been using a plucker to remove the hair there. Is it possible to use chemical peeling to lighten the dark skin and follow up with laser treatments to stop the hair growth?

I'm thinking about trying Follicle RX for hair loss, but I'm a little worried. Does it really work, and could it cause any side effects, either short or long term? Have people actually tried it and seen good results?

I've been noticing that I get these weird recurrent rashes around the time I ovulate. They're either skin-colored or red bumps showing up on my cheeks and forehead. Weird thing is, they clear up on their own by the time my period ends, or sometimes they go away within a week. This happens every month like clockwork. I'm not taking any pills or meds and I'm perfectly healthy otherwise. I did use emergency contraception a few times last year but that's about it. Could there be a connection, or is there something else I should be worried about?
