My 3-year-old child had a head burn from fire. The skin has healed normally but hair isn't growing back in that area. Is there any surgery or treatment that can help with hair regrowth?

I'm 25 and thinking about reshaping my nose but I really don't want surgery. Is there any way to change the shape without going under the knife? I've heard about nose exercises do they actually work? Also, are there any creams or applications that can help reshape it? If so, which ones would you recommend and how effective are they?

While some claim nose exercises and creams can reshape your nose, there's no scientific evidence to support these claims. The shape of your nose is largely determined by bone and cartilage, which cannot be altered by external methods like exercises or creams. Nonsurgical rhinoplasty, using dermal fillers, can temporarily change the nose's shape, but it's not a permanent solution.

How hard did you think I got hit to cause this much damage? I mean, my nose broke in two places and my sinus cavity, eye socket, and cleft palate got slightly damaged too. I was sent to a plastic surgeon for some medical plastics or something, and when I breathe in or drink, my cheek feels cold. I'm just trying to understand the impact it must've taken to do all this.

It sounds like you sustained significant trauma to your face. The extent of the damage suggests a forceful impact. In this case, the plastic surgeon may prescribe pain medication and antibiotics to prevent infection. For pain relief, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Antibiotics like Amoxicillin 500mg can be taken every 8 hours to prevent infection. It is important to follow up with your plastic surgeon for further evaluation and treatment.

What's the best way to reduce a double chin liposuction or surgery? I'm worried about potential risks or complications with either option and want to know which one is safer and more effective for long-term results. Are there any serious side effects I should be aware of?

For a double chin, both liposuction and surgery offer effective solutions, but liposuction is generally considered safer and more minimally invasive. Liposuction directly removes fat cells, while surgery may involve tightening skin and muscles. While both procedures have potential risks, liposuction's minimal invasiveness and shorter recovery time make it a preferred choice for many.
