Answered by Farida Lokhandwala

Hello Ankita, Laser hair removal is one of the best treatments for long-lasting reduction of unwanted body hair. You will need around 4 to 6 sessions to get the desired result and over the period of time may need follow-up sessions depending on your hair re-growth pattern. During this treatment, the light beam from the laser damages the pigment present in the hair follicles due to which the future hair growth is either delayed or prevented. Hope our answer helps you. Our page will help you find experts who can be trusted with this treatment - Laser Hair Removal doctors in Mumbai, let us know if you want a different city!

Your boyfriend may have a severe skin infection that’s spreading. The redness, swelling, and pain—coupled with swollen glands in the groin—indicate that it might be a bacterial infection. To cure this, he may require a course of antibiotics such as penicillin or cephalosporin which can help to fight off the infection. It is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

The boy seems to have atopic dermatitis also called as atopic eczema. The care is utmost important in his case as the skin is dry and prone to rashes as well as infection. steps should be taken to keep his skin moist at all times. Start by oiling him before bath, use mild cleansers, and apply moisturizers immediately after bath so as to retain water and seal it inside his skin. The flutibact is for immediate reduction of rashes. Start using tacrolimus cream once a week to prevent further rashes. The flutibact is a steroid and antibiotic combination cream, and therefore has to be used judiciously. Please meet a pediatric dermatologist for more information regarding this problem
