My skin feels super tight and won't bounce back no matter what I try even with lotions or gels. Could this mean I need some kind of medical treatment or surgery? It's really worrying me because nothing seems to help.

If these changes do not bring relief, you may want to see a dermatologist. Very dry skin can require a prescription ointment or cream. Dry skin also can be a sign of a skin condition that needs treatment. A dermatologist can examine your skin and explain what can help reduce your discomfort

I've just started taking Morr F 5 for my ADA, and my hair fall's actually gotten worse since day one. Is this normal? Why is it happening, and when can I expect it to calm down and see some hair regrowth?

Hairfall will contine for a 3 months and regrowth will start after 3-6 month of use.

I'm thinking about getting a permanent laser fairness treatment for my whole body because I have a pretty typical Indian skin tone, not too dark or too light. I'm really curious about which treatment centers offer the best results, especially if they're in or around Pune, and how much it might cost. I have normal skin, not sensitive, and I'm also wondering what steps I should take to keep my skin complexion fair after the treatment. Any advice would be appreciated!
