Dermaplaning is a treatment which uses a blade to exfoliate your skin and skim all the dead cells out of your hair as well as your face. It’s also known as microplaning or blading. It aims to make your skin’s surface smoother, more youthful looking, and radiant. It also helps in removing deep scars left from acne, uneven pockmarks, and short hair on your face. Ideally, you should not feel any pain during the treatment except slight sensation of tingling. This is mostly a safe procedure, but you will experience redness of skin, patchy skin pigmentation and whiteheads for a day or two post treatment, and they are all temporary symptoms. Along with that you may get scarred in extremely rare cases, but if you do then you would need a separate treatment. Price will always vary depending on area covered and the extent to which same was required, but it starts from Rs. 1000 onwards.

Dermaplaning is helpful in decreasing wrinkles, acne and fine lines. But to know whether you are eligible or not for it, you need to visit a dermatologist. Based on your skin type and condition, the doctor will tell whether dermaplaning is suitable for you or not. And talking about the cost, it depends on the area that needs treatment and it also depends on the doctor and the clinic.

You are likely suffering from cellulitis, which is an infection. This can happen when bacteria enter the body through an injury or insect bite. The infection usually causes redness, swelling, and pain in the affected area. Besides these symptoms, you may also feel severe pain. If the infection spreads, it can lead to serious issues like shortness of breath and joint pain. It is crucial to get antibiotic treatment immediately to stop the infection.

Female | 6
Ectodermal dysplasia can interfere with the normal development of teeth, hair, sweat glands, and nails. There is no treatment for this condition, but some medicines can help relieve the symptoms. Your daughter may need dental care, a prosthetic denture, and other services as she grows up. It is necessary to cooperate closely with a dentist to devise the treatment plan that best meets her needs.

I am 27 year old living in ranchi kanke road , having serious problem of dandruff hairfall and my hair color is changing into white even some part of beard as well. Kindly help me with the treatment.
Male | 27
Dandruff in the scalp is due to excess sebum (natural oil) production along with increased activity of a fungus called Malassezia in the scalp. Antifungal shampoos containing Ketoconazole, Ciclopirox, selenium sulphide can help treat the dandruff. If it is severe, oral antifungals are also prescribed for a short duration. Salicylic acid, coal tar shampoos are also prescribed in case of excess flakiness of scalp. Hair fall may be due to dandruff, nutritional deficiencies, stress or due to genetic factors. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can diagnose the cause of hairfall and may suggest treatment accordingly. Trichoscopy of the scalp may help in understanding the nature of the scalp and condition. Nutritional supplements, Capixyl containing serum, Minoxidil solution, oral supplements containing vitamin and minerals are prescribed by the dermatologist to treat the hair loss. Change in hair colour in beard and scalp may be due to nutritional deficiencies or strong hair colours or genetic causes. Dermatologist’s help may be needed to treat the same. Calcium pantothenate containing supplements may help slow down the greying and sometimes restore the colour of hair.

Male | 19
Vitamin E is known for its antioxidant properties and can help nourish your skin. Using a mild face wash like Himalaya can maintain cleanliness and balance. However, it's essential to know that everyone's skin reacts differently. If you experience any irritation or adverse effects, it would be wise to discontinue use and consult a dermatologist for personalized advice. They can provide tailored recommendations for your skin type, ensuring you achieve your desired glow safely.

Face pimple and itching and spot
Female | 23
Pimples are a result of pore closures on the skin due to the plugs made of oil and dirt. Itching might be a symptom of your skin being inflamed. To relieve the problem, gently clean your skin with a mild cleaner, don't pick or squeeze the pimple, and use a spot treatment with ingredients such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

Wa Alaikum As-Salam. I am sorry your mother isn't well. Because of allergies that people develop, reaction such as sneezing, itching, and fatigue may occur. This may be a factor as well in her overall weakness, especially at her age. It’s crucial to pinpoint the exact allergens and handle symptoms effectively. My advice is to make sure she is drinking enough water, eating healthy foods, and getting enough sleep. It's important to consult with a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

Small pearl size substance feel under skin on nearby elbow cannot see no pain
Female | 22
This is likely (or can be) what we call a cyst. Cysts are usually benign and arise when oil or skin cells are stuck under the skin. Oftentimes, these cysts don't give you any irritations and therefore do not cause any problems. If it is not bothering you, you can disregard it. But whatever the case may be, it is best to visit a dermatologist if it grows or starts to be painful.

Male | 22
You may have detected the small painless bumps around your pubic area that are running up your stomach, which may be a skin condition named molluscum contagiosum. The bumps are usually harmless and can be caused by a virus. They can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact but are not necessarily an STI. It's best to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment if you want to be sure.

Female | 32
You might still be experiencing symptoms from shingles. Even after taking medicine, the pain and burning can persist for some time. It's important to visit a dermatologist to check the condition and ensure it’s healing properly. If you’re feeling shortness of breath, it’s also a good idea to see a pulmonologist to rule out any other issues.

I'm 23 year old I have pea size white patch in the upper tip of my lower lip. Doctor prescribed me melgain lotion for 40days at morning, takfa ointment 0.03% 2 times a day and cylofac capsule at night. Can I just use takfa ointment for now as I am afraid to use lotion. If the ointment suits my lips then will lotion afterwards.
Female | 23
The white patch you describe could be due to various causes, such as vitiligo or another skin condition. While it's essential to follow your doctor's prescribed regimen for optimal results, starting with just the topical ointment is a reasonable choice if you feel more comfortable with it. Ensure you monitor how your lips respond. However, please remember that the lotion plays a significant role in your treatment plan. If you have concerns, I recommend discussing your feelings with your dermatologist, who can offer tailored guidance and reassurance.

My sister has a severe allergy to benzoyl peroxide. Her face and neck were swelling in the area of contact last night.
Female | 37
An allergic response occurs when your body sees a substance as harmful. It swells to shield itself. Her swelling shows benzoyl peroxide triggered an allergic reaction. Dodging benzoyl peroxide products and consulting a dermatologist about alternative treatments that won't cause an allergy is wise.

Erythrasma is an underarm infection. Red or brown patches appear on the skin. The skin might feel itchy or uncomfortable. A certain bacteria causes the infection. It thrives in warm, moist areas like the armpits. To treat Erythrasma, keep the affected area dry. Use antibiotic creams as directed. Practice good hygiene by bathing regularly. These steps can help clear up the infection quickly and effectively.

Female | 19
Acne is a common condition, especially at your age, and can lead to redness and scars. This occurs when pores get clogged by oil and dead skin, often influenced by hormones or stress. To address these concerns, gentle cleansing, using non-comedogenic products, and over-the-counter treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can help. It's important to keep the skin moisturized and protected from the sun. I recommend seeking a dermatologist for personalized advice and treatment options.

Female | 21
You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

This could be a cyst or a lipoma (a harmless fatty growth), among other things. If you feel pain, notice changes in skin color around it, or find that it grows rapidly please see a dermatologist immediately for necessary investigations. You may have to undergo biopsy or surgery for removal depending on the doctor's recommendations to secure your health.

Acne spots on my face How to treat them ?
Female | 17
These spots occur when your skin's pores are blocked by oil and dead skin cells. This may result from hormonal changes, stress, or the use of skincare products that contain oils. For remedy, try cleansing your face twice a day with a mild cleanser, and additionally, using products that contain ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Also, avoid squeezing or picking at the spots as it may make the situation worse. You could just go to a dermatologist and receive more opinions.

Female | 73
Sweating can irritate the skin and create blisters, especially in a hot climate. If you have a burning sensation, you can bring the heat to decrease the swelling by taking a cool, damp cloth and rubbing it on the blisters. As an alternative, calamine lotion will be of much help. Keep the affected areas clean and dry. If the blisters get worse, or if you see any signs of infection such as redness, warmth, or pus, it is necessary to have a dermatologist examine them.

Female | 33
You may have a condition called eczema. Eczema can cause red, itchy patches with small water-filled blisters, especially on the hands. Switching to a new living environment can sometimes lead to skin reactions. Use a mild moisturizer, avoid harsh soaps, and wear gloves for hand protection. If the rash does not improve, it is important to consult a dermatologist for further assistance.

I sweat alot from my armpits, even if it's cold, warm or sunny weather there's always water dripping out of my armpits every minute. I'm 19 and I've been experiencing this like forever
Female | 19
You may have a problem with too much sweating, or what some call hyperhidrosis. What happens is your sweat glands become overactive and produce more sweat than is necessary. Sometimes this can be genetic or due to other medical conditions that you have. There’s treatment for this kind of thing – prescription antiperspirants, pills that you take by mouth…even Botox injections. It’s important to see a dermatologist so that they can help figure out what will work best for you.
