My mom recently had facial herpes. The blisters are gone now, but they've left some scars. I'm trying to find out what kind of medicine or ointments can help fade these scars. I've got some pictures that might make things clearer. Any advice?

I'm using Folliserum for my hair fall since I was 56, but I haven't noticed any improvement yet. I read somewhere that it might take up to 3-6 months to see results. Should I be more patient, or is it time to switch to a different serum? What do you suggest?

1. *Continue Follicserum usage* for at least 3-6 months. 2. *Consult a dermatologist* for personalized advice. 3. *Consider combination therapy* with minoxidil or biotin supplements. *Alternative Hair Growth Serums* 1. *Kerastase Densifique Serum* 2. *Nioxin 3-Part System* 3. *Regenepure Hair Growth Serum*
