Yes Alopecia Areata can be cured . Treatment depends on the severity and extent of hair loss. Topical or oral medications like Corticosteroids, minoxidil, or Anthralin could be prescribed. Immunotherapy or hair transplant surgery can also be considered. Nowdays stem cell cures hair loss as well. CONSULT a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

You need to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment. Keep the area clean and dry and wear loose clothing. Over the counter creams may provide temporary relief, but consulting a gynecologist or dermatologists is essential for a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I am a vegetarian and also anemic i have brown spots all over my back chest and neck i saw somewhere it said it’s because of low vitamin D but I want to make sure its not anything more serious
Answered on 29th July '23
While low vitamin D or anemia might contribute to skin issues, other causes like sun exposure and skin conditions should be considered. A dermatologist can perform a thorough evaluation to identify the exact cause of the brown spots and provide appropriate treatment. In the meantime, maintain a balanced diet and protect your skin from excessive sun exposure.

I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?
Answered on 17th Apr '23
Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

Hi, Im 23 years old, been taking treatments for hyperpigmentation from various doctors and recently a doctor suggested q switch laser of 4 sittings, I got the first N I personally feel tat my face n neck have gone one shade darker thsn before, now confused if I shd take the remaining sittings or not, Please clarify
Answered on 14th Apr '23
The skin appears darker or more pigmented usually after the first session of Q-switch laser treatment for hyperpigmentation. The treatment causes a temporary inflammation in the skin, which increases melanin production and darkens of the skin.
Talk to your dermatalogist as they can adjust the treatment parameters or suggest alternative treatment options based on your skin type and concerns.
