So, I've been dealing with melanin depigmentation and tried out this Pigmanorm cream that's got hydroquinone 4, hydrocortisone 1, and tretinoin 0.1. I applied it for three days, and now my face is all red in those spots. I stopped using the cream, but I'm kind of freaking out about whether this redness will go away on its own. Right now, I'm using Bioderma Sensibio Forte cream because I heard it's good for flushed skin. Do you think the redness will just fade away, or is it something that's going to stick around for a while? Also, I'm putting on Eveline sunscreen SPF 50 three times a day. Could you check out the pics and tell me what you think?

I've been using Cosmelite cream for about a month now, as my dermatologist recommended it. But I've noticed that once I stop using it, my skin turns very dark. I'm worried and a bit confused. Is there a chance that this cream could cause skin cancer?

The risk of skin cancer from Cosmelite cream is considered low when used as prescribed by a doctor for a short duration.

I've been struggling with hair fall for about 8 years now, and I've lost most of the hair on the top of my headit's mostly just the sides left. I've just started taking keraglo men tablets and evion capsules, and I'm using Dabur Amla oil for scalp massages. Do you think this will actually help my hair grow back? I'm really worried and just want to know if I'm on the right track or if there's something else I should be doing.

yes continue all the medications..

I'm dealing with excess body heat all year round, and it's really affecting my skinit gets super dry and darker. I'm already drinking a lot of water, but nothing seems to help. Do you have any simple home remedies or advice for this? I'm really curious about how I can manage this better.

To reduce excess body heat and alleviate dry, dark skin, try these home remedies: drink cooling drinks like coconut water, cucumber juice, or peppermint tea; eat cooling foods like yogurt, cucumber, and mint; apply cooling packs or cold compresses to your pulse points; practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga; wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing; take cool showers or baths; and consider incorporating Ayurvedic herbs like triphala, neem, or aloe vera into your routine, in addition to drinking plenty of water.
