My front hair loss is really stressing me out. I've tried natural remedies and medications but nothing worked. Now I'm considering surgery, but hair transplant seems too expensive. Is there any other option to regrow my hair, like moving my own hair to the bald spots?

I'm trying to find an anti-fungal cream that isn't steroid-based. Do you have any suggestions? Also, how long does it usually take for the marks to fade completely?

Here are some non-steroidal anti-fungal cream suggestions: *Clotrimazole-based creams* 1. *Candid cream*: Effective against fungal infections, available over-the-counter (OTC). 2. *Canesten cream*: Contains clotrimazole, used to treat fungal skin infections. *Terbinafine-based creams* 1. *Lamisil cream*: Treats fungal infections, available OTC. 2. *Terbinex cream*: Contains terbinafine, used to treat fungal skin infections. *Duration for Fading Away Marks* The time it takes for marks to fade away depends on: 1. *Severity of the infection*: More severe infections may take longer to clear up. 2. *Effectiveness of the treatment*: Using the right anti-fungal cream and following the treatment regimen can impact the duration. 3. *Individual skin type and healing*: Skin type, age, and overall health can influence the healing process. Typically, with consistent treatment, you can expect: - *Mild infections*: 1-2 weeks for marks to fade away - *Moderate infections*: 2-4 weeks for marks to fade away - *Severe infections*: 4-6 weeks or more for marks to fade away

I'm using Glocin gel, isotretinoin gel 0.05, isotretinoin capsule Tretiva 20, and Azirich, and my skin has become really dry. However, the redness on my face hasn't improved at all. Is there something I can do about the redness on my skin?

I've been through over 20 laser hair removal sessions on my face with two different doctors, but now Im dealing with even more coarse hair growth than before. Im considering electrolysis for hair removal, but Im unsure if it actually guarantees permanent results or if it's just another method for hair reduction like laser. Could you explain the potential side effects or downsides of electrolysis treatment?
