Question

I'm dealing with eczema and was told to use emoderm cream, but I can't find it in any of the pharmacies around here. Can you suggest an alternative cream that would work in its place?

An alternative to Emoderm cream for eczema could be Elica cream. You can apply Elica cream thinly on the affected skin twice a day for relief from eczema symptoms.

Question

I'm a brown-skinned girl and my dermatologist suggested I use KOJIGLO FORTE CREAM for the pigmentation around my mouth. I noticed it has 2% Hydroquinone, and I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe. Could it possibly make my pigmentation worse or darker? Can you help me understand if it's okay to use this cream?

Question

I have a coffee-colored milk mole on my cheek and I'm really bothered by it. Is there any way to remove it? Would I need surgery or are there other options that don't involve going under the knife?

Question

I'm a 23-year-old woman dealing with really thin, dry hair and tons of split ends. My hairline has noticeably thinned, especially in the front, making my forehead look bigger. I really want to regrow some new hair. I've tried a bunch of things like Arish and Parampara hair oils, and even KeyaSeth, but nothing has worked. The thinning started around eight or nine years ago, probably because I was using way too much shampoo when I was younger. I used Amway shampoo every day back in 8th grade, and it really messed up my hair. I also tried onion juice and bhringraj oil, but that didn't help either. This summer has been especially bad with all the hair fall. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
