which treatment works faster for stable vitiligo - excimer laser or surgical options like grafting? i'm trying to understand which one gives quicker repigmentation results
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For stable vitiligo, surgical grafting generally offers faster repigmentation results compared to excimer laser treatment. While excimer laser can achieve repigmentation, surgical options, like split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) and noncultured epidermal cell suspension (NCECS), are often preferred for their quicker and more complete results, especially in stable disease

View allI've been eating a lot of Chinese food lately, and it's pretty much become my go-to meal almost every day. But recently, I've started noticing this weird burning sensation on my skin in different parts of my body. There's no redness or itching, though. I'm a 25-year-old woman and I'm a bit worried. What could be causing this burning feeling?

I'm really concerned because my neck area has been getting darker for quite some time now. Someone mentioned I should try this cream called Memopi HC, and I managed to get it from the pharmacy. The thing is, the instructions say I need to see a doctor before using it. Can you help me understand how and when I should use this cream? Is it really necessary to consult a doctor first?

I'm trying to figure out how to use Kenacort 0.1% triamcinolone oromucosal gel for mouth or gum ulcers. Could you guide me on the steps? Should I just apply the gel and wait, or do I need to spit it out afterward? And what happens if I accidentally swallow some?
To apply Kenacort 0.1% Triamcinolone Oromucosal Gel for gum ulcers, you should wash your hands thoroughly before applying the gel. Take a small amount of gel on your clean fingertip. Gently apply the gel directly onto the affected gum ulcer. Avoid rubbing the gel vigorously, just spread it evenly over the ulcer. Allow the gel to remain in place and avoid rinsing your mouth or eatingdrinking for at least 30 minutes after application. Do not spit out the gel after application, let it stay on the ulcer to provide relief. If you accidentally swallow a small amount of the gel, it is generally safe. However, try to avoid swallowing it as much as possible to ensure maximum effectiveness for the ulcer. Remember to use Kenacort 0.1% Triamcinolone Oromucosal Gel as directed by your healthcare provider for the recommended duration.
