I am 24 years old I want my underarms to be get whiten is there any process to do that

Dermatology

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

Dark underarms can be a result of hyperpigmentation, diabetes, obesity, and abnormal hormone level, bacterial infection, dark patches on skin, or damaged adrenal gland, and it can also be caused by smoking, lack of exfoliation, chemical irritants, friction caused by dark clothes, or shaving.
First step, stop smoking, shaving, using those chemical irritants which harm your skin, and wear loose fitting clothes along with exfoliating more often.
If after some months you still don't see any changes, then you can approach a skin care expert, their first line of response would be providing topical creams, and then they can also move on to laser if it's hyperpigmentation, or chemical peel if your skin needs exfoliation, or dermabrasion & microdermabrasion if your skin needs cleansing.

I am 22 years old..female...i have pores on my face since 3 years...please recommend me any medical cream

Female | 22

Your skin may have enlarged pores due to genetics, excess oil, or not cleaning properly. To help reduce them, try using a cream with salicylic acid or retinol, as these ingredients can gradually shrink pores. Additionally, wash your face regularly and protect your skin from the sun.

I have vitiligo seens 13years.my age is 25.what ointment or medicine should I take?

Female | 25

Vitiligo is a condition where white spots show up on skin. It occurs when pigment-producing cells malfunction. No cure exists, but treatments aid. Topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors work best. They restore some color to affected areas. Sun protection is crucial, as exposure worsens symptoms.

Female | 38

You might be having some skin irritation. The common symptoms include redness, itchiness, and tenderness. One of the likely reasons could be that you are allergic to something touching your skin. You can get rid of it by applying a gentle unscented moisturizer and refrain from scratching it. If it doesn’t improve after a few days, you should probably see a dermatologist who can rule out any other potential problems.

Male | 18

It's understandable to feel concerned about hair loss, especially during stressful periods. Factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or hormonal changes can contribute to this issue. Encourage your brother to maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly those that promote hair health like biotin, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids. Practices such as regular exercise, adequate sleep, and mindfulness techniques can also help manage stress. While these steps may be beneficial, it's important to seek guidance from a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized recommendations.

I have gone through hair transplant surgery 4.5 months ago. I am suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia. As per the doctor, I am taking minoxidil and finastride on daily basis. However, my hair sheds while I apply minoxidil (10-15 hairs shed) and while I wash my head. Please suggest whether this is normal or should I consider any other treatment?

Hair fall is natural. As the lifecycle of hair has different stages.

Telogen and exogen are shedding phases of hair cycle where we lose hair. 15 to 20% hair are shed in these phases, therefore it's natural.
But when you lose more hair than routine, then its a matter of concern. Upto 30 to 40 hair per day is normal. Whatever you lose will grow back according to your hair cycle.
If you are losing thin hair very frequently then it's alarming as well.
After starting minoxidil hair fall increases. But that is normal and you will get those hair back because you are not losing them from the root.

Keep using minoxidil and finasteride it will help you.

You can refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India, or you can consult me as well anytime you feel that the state of your hair is seeing no improvement.

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.

how to remove drk black spot on face

Male | 58

Dark black spots on the face can get there because of sunburns, patches left by acne, or even hormone illness. Although they are sometimes totally harmless, most people do feel shy when looking at them in the mirror. Using gentle exfoliants like glycolic acid, applying precautions like using sunscreen daily, and getting treatments like laser therapy or chemical peels from a dermatologist can help lighten these spots over time.
