My wife got PRP treatment a few days ago, and now her forehead's really swollen. Is this something we should be worried about? It's been three days since the procedure, and we just want to know if this kind of swelling is normal.

Can you give some details like for what was the platelet rich plasma therapy done on your wife? Swlling at the site of injection, pain, soreness etc are common and they usually subside on its own. But swelling on forehead is not a side effect.

View allI'm really confused about which product to use for skin lightening. I've got a darker skin tone and I've been looking into Kojivit gel, Kojivit cream, Kojivit plus, and Kojivit ultra. Among these, which one would be the most effective for me? I'm just unsure about all these options and would love some guidance.
Kojivit Ultra gel is more effective for skin lightening compared to Kojivit gel, cream, or Kojivit Plus. You can apply a thin layer of Kojivit Ultra gel on the affected skin area once daily in the evening. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from sun damage.

I'm really worried about some hypopigmented spots on my skin. I came across a picture online that looks a lot like what's happening with me. Do you think using Whitcare skin cream could help with this? Also, someone mentioned aloe vera might be useful for hypopigmented skin. Is that true? Would love to get your insight on this.
Whit-care skin cream contains ingredients like hydroquinone, tretinoin, and mometasone which can be helpful in treating hypopigmented skin. It is important to use it under the guidance of a dermatologist to avoid any side effects. The usual dosage is to apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area once daily at night. Aloe Vera can be beneficial for hypopigmented skin as it has moisturizing and healing properties. It can help improve the overall health of the skin and promote pigmentation. You can apply pure aloe Vera gel directly to the affected area twice daily for best results.

I've noticed these white patches in the corners of my lips for about a year now. They don't hurt, but it seems like the whiteness is spreading. I'm really starting to wonder what's causing this. Any ideas?
May be due to a condition called oral thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida albicans. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as clotrimazole. Additionally, maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding sugary foods can help prevent the infection from worsening.
