My upper body is tan while my lower body is much fairer can skin whitening treatments even out my skin tone? I've heard it involves chemicals but I'm not sure how it works or if it's safe. Is it possible to lighten just the darker areas to match the rest?

Yes, skin whitening treatments can potentially even out your skin tone by lightening the darker areas. However, the effectiveness and permanence of these treatments vary, and it's crucial to manage expectations and understand potential risk

View allI'm really worried about my hair lately. Over the past two weeks, I've noticed significant hair loss. Every time I comb my hair, it seems like I lose around 50 to 100 strands, sometimes even more. It's quite alarming because it seems to be getting worse each day. My period cycle is normal, so I'm not sure what's causing this. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose and chin for a while now. My doctor suggested using hhsalic ointment and taking Actilife tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there something else I could try? I'm really looking for any other treatments or advice that could help.

I've been dealing with this frustrating fungal infection in my groin for a while now. It's got this annoying itching and my skin has turned dark, almost black. I'm 48 and weigh about 80 KGs. I've been using forederm ointment for a month, but if I skip even a day or two, the symptoms come right back. I'm really looking for some help here. Is there something else I should try or any advice you can give me to get this under control?
It seems like you have a persistent fungal infection in your groin area. I recommend you try using Terbinafine cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection internally. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to prevent further irritation.
