One of the factors that influence eligibility for a hair transplant includes age. Although there is no strict age limit, the stability of your hair loss pattern should be considered. Typically, hair transplants will be recommended for individuals whose menu of baldness is stabilizing around their late 20’s or older; this gives them a better sense about what the future patterns would look like. Furthermore, overall health, availability of donor hairs and rational expectations surrender to a decision on eligibility.

I am 17 year old i have pimple or acne in face and back since 8 month i consulted to my near dermatologist but i dont get any reslut what should i do

Male | 17

Acne can pop up on both your face and back, and it can be irritating. This is when the oil, as well as dead skin cells, block the pores and result in acne. The result is inflamed bumps and whiteheads. You can try a mild cleanser to clear your skin and pimples stay clear by not touching or squeezing them. Drink enough water and eat healthy food to stimulate the regeneration of the skin. If your acne does not diminish, talk to a dermatologist who can suggest other treatment options.

Hi I do have a foreskin infection & the head of the pines. It’s red and has a white color coating on the head of the pines and on the foreskin has an itching sensation and some times the foreskin gets small cuts as well.

Male | 32

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as balanitis, characterized by redness, irritation, and discharge on the head of the penis, often accompanied by itching and small cracks on the skin. This can result from infections, poor hygiene, or irritation from products. To alleviate discomfort, maintain proper hygiene by gently cleaning the area with mild soap and water. Applying a soothing over-the-counter cream may help, but I strongly recommend consulting a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment. They can provide effective solutions to address your symptoms and ensure proper healing.

Vitiligo is a condition in which white patches of the skin are formed. The cause is the absence of a substance called melanin, which gives skin its color. It's not, however, painful or contagious. At times, vitiligo could start from a small spot and then over time cover a large area. It is advisable to go to a dermatologist for correct diagnosis and treatment options.

Acanthosis Nigricans is what you are suffering from, a skin condition that causes your neck to darken compared to the rest of your body. This may occur if you are obese or have diabetes.

What is the best treatment for vitiligo? Benifit between Pototherapy or oral medication for vitiligo treatment

Vitiligo makes your skin lose color in patches. Cells that produce pigment stop functioning, leading to white spots. Treatment choices are phototherapy and medicines. Phototherapy uses light to restore pigmentation. Oral medications help regain skin color. A dermatologist can recommend treatment after assessing your condition. Phototherapy and medication are effective options. Discuss with your doctor to choose the right approach.

Male | 19

You have got something called eczema. Eczema can be described as tiny scabs on the skin. One of the most essential precautions you can take is to cleanse and moisturize the area regularly. Don't scratch yourself too much because it can lead to an infection. You can try using a gentle moisturizer to see if it helps. If the scabs don't improve or you see any new symptoms, it's best to go to a dermatologist for further advice.

Hi doctors, My mother who is 50 yrs old is facing excessive sweating from 2 years, we hve checked her BP, sugar and thyroid which are normal, but I'm not understanding which doctor to consult regarding this excessive sweating.

Female | 50

Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is annoying. The reasons for the sweating can be other than normal BP, sugar, and thyroid of your mother. The medications, menopause, stress, or health problems that are hidden might lead to such a situation. A dermatologist with a focus on skin problems will be the best choice. They can help pinpoint the cause of the sweating and recommend treatments.

Iam 17 year old boy I have acne isuues not that much but still I have tiny bumps and some dark sports so can you just provide me some skin care routine

Male | 17

Tiny bumps and dark spots can be related to clogged pores or previous acne. To help, consider a gentle cleanser twice daily, followed by a lightweight moisturizer. Exfoliating once or twice a week can clear away dead skin, and incorporating a product with salicylic acid may prevent future issues. Protect your skin with sunscreen daily to help with dark spots. Remember, everyone’s skin is unique, so it might be wise to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

I am 32 year old. Grey hairs appear very fastly in my beard and head ? Please suggest me how deal with it ?

Male | 32

It is no wonder that there may be cases of premature greying, which could be classified into genetics, stress, nutritional deficiencies, or hormonal changes. This condition may sound alarming, but it is common to many people of different ages. For example, controlling it by consuming a healthy diet that is full of vitamins and minerals, especially B vitamins, zinc, and biotin can be effective. Apart from that, using relaxation techniques to manage stress can also be helpful. If this transition is abrupt or follows along with other signs, it is a good idea to go see a dermatologist for a proper checkup and individual guidance.

Your skin burned due to excessive serum usage for peeling. Burned skin resembles sunburn - red, painful, sensitive. To heal, discontinue serum, gently wash your face with cool water and apply soothing aloe vera lotion. Protect skin from sun exposure. If burning persists or worsens, inform a dermatologist for further assistance.

Hello I have been having a skin infection of something that looks like ringworm. It starts like a pimple and later widens into different sizes. It started appearing on my thighs and is now appearing on every other part of my body except my face and scalp. There are moments when my skin is void of any but on other periods it appears almost every where with a lot on my fingers and palms. It's been on and off for more than 10 years now. I've consulted several dematologist with each having a different diagnosis and prescribing different creams to be applied on the affected spots but those have not helped me in any way. I truly do not know what else to do. Please help.

Female | 27

Ringworms often spread and return if not treated well. Fungal infections love warm, damp body areas. Antifungal creams don't always work for severe and stubborn infections. I suggest seeing an experienced dermatologist. They can evaluate your unique condition much better and recommend medications or other treatments suitable for this.

In these areas, you may experience burning, itching, or discomfort. Said viruses are easily transmitted through physical contact like kissing or intercourse. If it's herpes, get help from a dermatologist because they will diagnose and treat you.

Skin care products for dark dry skin types

Female | 20

When dry, dark skin feels tight or rough, itchiness happens sometimes. This dryness arises due to cold air, harsh soaps, and lack of water. Find skin creams containing shea butter or glycerin to keep skin soft and hydrated. Hyaluronic acid also helps. Use sunscreen always and drink lots of water. Hot showers damage by stripping natural oils away from the skin. So they're best avoided.

Some evn suspected to be a fungal infection.it does not affect my entire body like othe r beat rashes do to other people.i have used medicine like Miconozole cream but none changes

Female | 16

This could be the cause of having blisters and corpses on your hands and feet. Miconazole creams usually work when infections are caused by fungi, but if you have tried everything else and Miconazole failed, you can investigate other potential causes such as allergic responses or irritant contact dermatitis. I recommend you to see a specialist in dermatology who will perform the complete examination and offer the most effective treatment that will reduce your symptoms.

Which treatment suits on me, as i m suffering from acne pigmentation nd dullness?

Female | 27

Dealing with acne, dark spots, and dullness can be frustrating. Acne causes pimples. Pigmentation leads to unwanted dark patches. Dullness makes your complexion appear tired, lacking radiance. To tackle these woes, consider skincare with retinol, niacinamide, and vitamin C. Shielding your skin from sun damage by applying sunscreen regularly is crucial. Cleanse your face diligently, resist picking at blemishes, and stay hydrated by drinking ample water.
