A sudden onset of bad acne and hair fall suggests either a hormonal imbalance issue or stressors or both.
A more in-depth detailed history and clear digital pics preferably will be required to make a more meaningful assessment and structure a workable treatment plan.
However, this is nothing to stress about and can be sorted.
Laboratory tests may be required as per our assessment eg LH:FSH ratio.
Do Consider an ONLINE Consultation for best results 🙏 as even if we are both in Bangalore as the case may be, traffic ⛔🚦 issues are a non starter to visit clinics.
Health Tips
Avoid parlour treatments and visits to spas and salons with quacks at the helm as a lot abound in Bengaluru. Patronise a Clinic or Centre which is run by a Qualified senior Dermatologist.
Do NOT 🚫 use OTC products and oil based cosmetics 💄💅
