Hydroquinone for skin lightening

Male | 18

Let me give you the lowdown on hydroquinone: it’s a common ingredient found in skin lightening products. This is because it works by reducing melanin in the skin. So if you have dark spots such as age or sun spots, using hydroquinone could help fade them away. However, don’t forget that you must be cautious not to misuse it since this can cause some undesired effects. As a rule, always follow directions given by the manufacturer when using any cosmetic product and also watch out for any allergic reactions.

Can my skin color still return after not taking iron supplements for a year

Female | 19

Yes, definitely! Starting iron supplementation can help improve your skin color. Symptoms of low iron, like pallor and fatigue, can show up in your body. Most iron deficiency is due to not getting enough iron in your diet. A balanced diet should include iron-rich foods like spinach and meat. Seek advice from a healthcare professional for suitable recommendations.

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.

I have alot of head lice and nits in my hair should i use ivermectin 6mg tablet for it or not

Female | 21

Head lice are little bugs that reside in your hair and give you an itch. The nits are the ovum of their species. Treating head lice is crucial to prevent the occurrence of new infections. Ivermectin tablets are an effective treatment although you should consult your doctor first. Shampoos are some of the over-the-counter treatments that may also be effective. The washing of clothing and bedding is necessary to avoid a second infestation.

I seem to have a belly button infection.

Female | 23

If you suspect you have a belly button infection, it's important to take appropriate steps.. Clean the area gently with warm water and mild soap. Keep the area dry and avoid excessive moisture. If you notice signs of infection like redness, swelling, pain, discharge, or a foul odor, consider seeking medical advice.
