Hair loss, Dandruff, Dark spots
I'm doing headbath daily still the dandruff is not reducing. After applying oil and aloevera and doing headbath dandruff is completely eradicated but within 24hours again dandruff is formed on scalp. This process is repeating from 9 months. Dark spots are formed on my skin due to pimples and want to get rid of dark spots. Looking for solution...

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. Please contact me with photos using online consult option for proper examination and treatment. Do not start treatment without consulting.

Hair loss from the hairline or crown can occur due to many reasons, more commonly due to-
- hormonal effect
- nutrition
- lifestyle imbalance
- stress
- Medical conditions, fever
The exact reason can be found out by taking detailed history and hair analysis .
Accordingly, anti hairloss medicines, hair specific multivitamins, lotions and gels are prescribed.
Many non surgical external treatments are available that show good results and can prevent hair transplant.
These are :
Mesoporation with hair peptides
Stemcell,
Dermaroller
PRP therapy etc.
Treatments are prescribed according to diagnosis. You can expect results in 6 to 8 months with a combination of these treatments.

You need a proper treatment in the form of some shampoos and solutions along with detailed history so we can rule out other causes of your dandruff
For pimples
- Its normal phenomenon that your pimples would heal and leave pigmentations in the form of dark spots and even worse when you have tendency of post inflammatory hyper pigmentation after sun exposure.
