My sister stays in a hostel, and she's caught a really bad case of head lice from the other girls there. We did some Googling and found treatment centers, but they all seem to be for kids. Can she get treated at your clinic? We're really concerned because head lice can seriously affect a person's health, and we've tried all sorts of home remedies, but nothing's working anymore.

I've noticed some black spots on my buttocks and I'm wondering what could be causing them. Do you think they'll fade away on their own, or is there something I should do? If there's a cream that might help reduce them, could you let me know what it is?
could be due to post inflamation You can use a gentle scrub or a chemical exfoliant like salicylic acid or glycolic acid to exfoliate the skin. However, be gentle, as over-exfoliation can make pigmentation worse.You can use skin-lightening creams that contain ingredients like: Niacinamide: Helps lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Vitamin C: Reduces pigmentation and brightens the skin. Hydroquinone: A bleaching agent that can help fade dark spots over time (but should be used with caution and under dermatological supervision). Alpha Arbutin: A mild skin lightener that reduces dark spots.
