Is lemon good for hair?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lemon is usually used in hair oils and shampoos. But directly applying it may irritate the scalp skin. Do a patch test before applying it.

I'm using minoxidil as my doctor prescribed, and I'm thinking about dyeing my hair. Do you think applying hair dye will cause any issues while I'm on minoxidil?
When using minoxidil, it's essential to exercise caution when applying hair dye: _Wait period_: Avoid applying hair dye for at least 24 hours after using minoxidil. _Patch test_: Perform a patch test with the hair dye to ensure you're not allergic to it. _Choose gentle dyes_: Opt for ammonia-free or semi-permanent hair dyes, which are less harsh. _Avoid overlapping_: Don't apply minoxidil and hair dye to the same area simultaneously.

I've recently undergone RF treatment for my Xanthelasma, and while the wound has healed, the skin there doesn't quite match the rest of my skin tone. Do you have any recommendations for creams or treatments that could help even it out?
I would recommend using a cream containing hydroquinone to help lighten the skin and reduce any remaining discoloration. You can try using a cream like Melalite Forte cream, applying a thin layer on the affected area once daily in the evening. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day to protect the skin and prevent further darkening.
