Hair loss has many causes - genetics, medical conditions, medications, and hairstyle practices. Early evaluation improves treatment choices. Topical minoxidil and prescription finasteride are established options for androgenetic hair loss; other medical and procedural therapies address different causes.
Acne-scar treatment is not one-size-fits-all. Match scar type and skin tone to modern options - topicals, microneedling, lasers, fillers, or combos - ask the right questions, and avoid miracle claims.
Stretch marks are dermal scars that fade but rarely disappear; early topical retinoids and in-office procedures (lasers, microneedling, radiofrequency) can reduce their appearance, while over-the-counter creams offer limited proof.
Laser scar treatments use different types of lasers to target pigment, blood vessels, or skin texture. They can reduce scar visibility but rarely remove scars completely. Treatment choice depends on scar type and skin tone; a qualified provider should tailor the plan.
Male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by genetic sensitivity to DHT, leading to follicle miniaturization. Modern options include topical minoxidil, oral finasteride, hair transplantation (FUE/FUT), and adjuncts like PRP and low-level laser therapy. Treatments often require long-term use and consultation with a dermatologist.
Learn practical, evidence-based tips for choosing hair-loss products: see a dermatologist, prefer treatments with clinical evidence (like topical minoxidil and oral finasteride for men), check active ingredients and safety, and set realistic expectations.
Updated options for acne scar reduction include lasers, microneedling, subcision, fillers or fat grafting, and intralesional injections. Early acne control and careful aftercare - gentle cleansing, sun protection, and avoiding picking - improve outcomes.
Female hair loss has many causes - genetic, hormonal, medical, and nutritional. Modern evaluation focuses on identifying reversible factors; treatments include topical minoxidil, oral antiandrogens, PRP, low-level laser therapy, and reconstructive options when appropriate.
Stretch marks form when skin stretches faster than it can adapt. Treatments - topicals, lasers, microneedling - can improve appearance but do not guarantee complete removal. Early marks respond better than older ones.
