I have acne scars which topical creams are best to use
Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Topical creams having retinoids, glycolic acid, and vitamin C are quite helpful in fading away the appearance of the scars. Nevertheless, you need to confer with a dermatologist if you are going to opt for a skin cream and the specialist can guide you with a better treatment plan that is unique to your type of skin and the extent of your scars.

I am 18 years old . I am having excessive hair loss for past 2 months . I was stressful due to exams in the 2 months and my periods have also been delayed. I am not under any medications . I have dandruff for more than 2 years by now
Female | 18
It sounds like you have been experiencing a lot of stress recently due to your exams, and this can sometimes lead to hair loss and delayed periods. Dandruff can also contribute to hair loss. It's important to manage your stress levels, eat a balanced diet, and use a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo. If the hair loss continues, it's a good idea to talk to a dermatologist for further advice.

Male | 48
Skin infections can lead to swelling, redness, and sometimes even to the appearance of bubbles or blisters. This is the result of bacteria getting into the skin via a cut or wound, for example, a bite. The most important thing you can do is to visit a dermatologist and get the right treatment. They can prescribe you some antibiotics and give you ointments that can assist you in getting rid of the infection. To ensure that the area heals faster, it is important to keep it clean and dry.

Tiny rash started apppearing on my skin after i changed my bodywash recently
Female | 21
The tiny rash on your skin could be due to some of the skin’s new body wash ingredients not being compatible with your skin. Try getting back to your old body wash to check if the rash goes away. If it doesn't take a turn for the better or worsens, the best thing is to stop using the new body soap and go for a check-up with a dermatologist for more help.

I am 20 years old. As for the past 10 days I am facing very serious hair fall. I really don't know what was the reason. Half of my hair dense reduced within a week. Will you give a helpful suggestions.
Female | 20
Hair fall can happen due to many reasons, like stress, poor diet, or not taking care of your hair. It’s good to eat healthy foods and be gentle on your hair when washing it. Consider using a mild shampoo and avoiding tight hairstyles that may cause breakage. If the hair fall doesn't stop, visit a dermatologist for treatment.

I have acne problem. My dermatologist suggested me Acnilite soap but now it's not available. So please suggest me alternative to that
Female | 21
Acne is common, causing pimples and oily skin. Hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. You can try soap with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. These ingredients unplug pores and reduce acne. Gently wash your face, avoid harsh scrubbing.

Can I use glutathione tablets And how to use this And how to stop this What are the side effects
Female | 19
Glutathione happens to be a natural antioxidant. Glutathione tablets are being used by some to make their skin light, though these are not approved for this. Using glutathione tablets can lead to gastrointestinal problems such as tummy discomfort like cramps or bloating. On the other hand, a large amount could lead to kidney troubles. As far as the chances of withdrawal are concerned, it is better to discuss this matter with a dermatologist first to minimize the adverse effects resulting from the withdrawal.

yellow bumps surrounding top and bottom lip
Female | 18
Yellow bumps around the lips may be a type of skin condition called Fordyce spots. They are an inconsequential and healthy product of the body that is commonly seen on the lips and is caused by the sebaceous glands. The bumps are usually without symptoms or pain. If you are worried about their look, you can visit a dermatologist for treatment options like laser therapy or topical creams.

What medication can I take to cure the infection (itchy rashes on my private part and yansh)?
Male | 20
A rash affecting your intimate areas may indicate a yeast or bacterial infection. This condition is widespread, so there's no need for embarrassment. For treatment, a doctor could recommend an antifungal cream or antibiotic ointment. Maintain cleanliness and dryness in the affected region. Wear loose-fitting garments. Refrain from scratching to expedite healing.

Is eliteglo cream is safe or its a steriod cream
Female | 23
Eliteglo Cream is not considered safe due to its ingredient clobetasol, a corticosteroid, which can cause negative effects. Long-term use of steroid creams without medical supervision can thin the skin and lead to stretch marks and other skin conditions. Immediate effects like redness, itching, or burning are common but usually temporary. For personalized advice and safer alternatives, please consult a dermatologist.

Hi, i am 29 year old. i have started getting pigmentation around my right eye and left cheek. which treatment do you recommend? and please suggest some good serum , i have tried a few but none working on my skin. Thank you!
Female | 29
Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess melanin in the skin, shadowing effect due to deep set eyes or due to thin skin around the eyes. Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess eye muscle strain, inadequate sleep, iron or vitamin B12 deficiencies, thyroid hormonal imbalance or constitutional. Dark circles may extend on to the cheeks leading to pigmentary demarcation lines. However if it is only on one side any trauma or underlying ophthalmologic cause should be ruled out with an Ophthalmologist’s opinion apart from a Dermatologist’s consultation. Topical cream/serum containing vitamin C, retinol, haloxyl, kojic acid , glycolic acid, etc in lower concentrations are recommended. Sunscreens, using sun glasses, anti glare screens on desktop/laptop etc may prevent further worsening of the condition. Laser toning with Q-switched yag laser, mild chemical peels may help. If the cause of dark circles is due to hollowness under the eye, hyaluronic acid fillers may help. For more help please visit dermatologist near you

I have been bit by a person in my hand a few says ago. The area is red now. What should I do about it?
Female | 24
The redness you see might be a cause of infection. It can be managed by washing the area properly with soap and water. Next, put an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and cover it with a bandage. If the redness starts to expand, you get a fever, or if there is pus, seek medical help immediately.

I am 21 year old female. I have premature gery hair for last 4 years . But day by it increases. What should I do now?
Female | 21
It’s common to get gray hair early, especially if it started in your teenage years. This can be due to genetics, stress, or diet. While it might seem worrying, gray hair usually isn't a sign of a serious health problem. You can choose to use hair dye or embrace your natural look. Remember to eat a balanced diet, manage stress, and take good care of your hair.
