My left earlobe has a big hole and I want to get it fixed without surgery or stitches. I heard some places use glue or cream and then put a plaster over it. Does anyone in Bangalore offer this kind of treatment?

I've been prescribed Isotretinoin by my dermatologist for six months, and while it has worked well for me, I'm really worried about how expensive it is. I'm wondering if I can switch from Isotane to Lactezin capsules instead. Will they work the same way?

Switching from Isotane (Isotretinoin) to Lactezin Capsule isn't recommended without consulting your dermatologist first. Isotretinoin is a retinoid medication specifically designed to treat severe acne, and its effectiveness is well-documented. Lactezin, on the other hand, is typically used to treat digestive issues, not acne. If you're concerned about the cost of Isotane, consider discussing alternative options or generic versions with your dermatologist. Some generic versions of Isotretinoin, like Isotroin 5 Capsule or Acutret 5 Capsule, might be more affordable. However, it's crucial to prioritize your acne treatment and consult with your dermatologist before making any changes to your medication.
