Your Dr. could prescribe you Propecia.Can a dermatologist prevent me from getting bald? ( I am 19 and i didnt lose my hair )But there is a possibili
No. He may be able to slow it down but not stop it.
Hope I can help you, %26amp; I think I can. Baldness is definitely genetic.


It happens to females as well. My mother, sister %26amp; niece had hair loss. It's true that stress can exacerbate the loss, however--in my sister I've seen TRUE results by the use of ROGAINE. I believe it was first introduced only for men, (but a lower dose is


available for women), %26amp; they've recently come up with a ';foam'; for men. I'm very skeptical about ';remedies'; but the proof is in the pudding...%26amp; after a few months, regrowth of my sister's hair


was substantial, %26amp; continues to increase. I know a young man who had ';bald genes'; %26amp; started the program when he was only 20. You have to be diligent, (morning %26amp; evening), %26amp; IF YOU STOP USING IT YOU WILL LOSE ALL THE GROWTH YOU ACCOMPLISHED. It's a constant maintenance, %26amp; ';forever.';


I would never recommend anything without proof of its worth; ROGAINE IS effective. Unless hair loss is due to some other condition, a dermatologist cannot help you. I suspect it's never too early to start.
If your genes are programmed for you to be bald by a certain age, then I don't feel there is anyway to prevent it.
you can lose your hair through effects of stress so if all you do is worry about going bald then you could because of the stress you put yourself through i no it happened to my brother,pluss if going bald runs in the family theres nothing you or anyone can do to stop it

My dermatologist, who knows I have colitis, prescribed me ziana. Anyone in the same position?

I gather it interacts or bothers your colitis? If so you should have mentioned it to him. If you did and he prescribed it and shouldn't have, you need to find another doctor.





Some doctors only follow protocol and are clueless about how some drugs affect other illnesses.My dermatologist, who knows I have colitis, prescribed me ziana. Anyone in the same position?

    Do dermatologist acne medicine usually work?!?

    i have very oily skin, like oil should come on my skin every 15 minutes and i ahve tried everything. if i visit my deratoligist, will the medicine work well fo rme? and do i have to use ti forever for ti to work?Do dermatologist acne medicine usually work?!?
    definantely.





    i used them. and i had pretty bad acne and now alot of people say i have good skin





    it wont work instantley but i used it for a couple of months


    and voila completly goneDo dermatologist acne medicine usually work?!?
    I use Pro-Activ, and yes it works wonders. I used to get the occasional zit and had a bit of an oily skin problem, but it's all in the past now. People stare at me like I'm the most beautiful thing they might ever seen, and sometimes I think they're right.

    My dermatologist thinks that food doesn't cause acne but i dont believe him?

    He tells me he doesn't think it would cause teenage acne but i do not believe him? who should i believe me or himMy dermatologist thinks that food doesn't cause acne but i dont believe him?
    I know that if I drink too much fruit juice it makes me break out. My dermatologist didn't believe me either but I decided to trust what my own experiences.My dermatologist thinks that food doesn't cause acne but i dont believe him?
    i know....i used to eat a lot of chocolates and i used to get a lot of breakouts and everyone said that was because of the chocolates but when i stopped eating chocolates it didnt make my acne any better. so according to my knowledge.... acne is caused by the hormones stuff and not by what u eat so i am 100% confident that u should believe ur derm.
    omg everyone thinks food causes acne.


    thats somewhat true.


    It is true that if you eat chocolate and greasy food alot, you will get acne, but there are a bajillion other causes.
    I think clearly you are much more knowledgeable than your doctor. Who needs medical school when you have Yahoo! answers?

    [looking for advice] -- Should I see a Dermatologist?

    Okay, I've taken Proactiv for about 5 weeks now. I haven't seen a big improvement. At times, my face looks clearer, but for the most part it doesn't. And according to some people, it just looks completely worse. So Now, I'm considering visiting a dermatologist. Should I visit them, or wait out the process of Proactiv?[looking for advice] -- Should I see a Dermatologist?
    First of all i ve to ask u why u take proactive,for treatin acne or something else,and whom advise u to take that ur self or ur G.P ....if u have acne and wanna treat that its better if u go to a dermatologist cuz we have many kind of acne and every one of them has his own treatment and drug....


    Good luck[looking for advice] -- Should I see a Dermatologist?
    you have too see your local gp(doctor)who will then refer you to see a dermatologist





    good luck
    Proactiv never helped for me. You should go to your doctor and have him/her recommend a dermatologist. I had really bad acne and my doctor recommended me to a dermatologist. I got on a medication called Accutane. It is VERY strong, but it worked great! Mention it to your doctor and see what he/she has to say. Good luck!
    Proactiv is snake oil. It will do mostly nothing for you.





    You should go see a dermatologist. There are a whole bunch of things that could actually help you that a dermatologist could recommend. In the worst cases, he might treat you with Accutane. Although it has its risks, it is very effective. A friend of mine who had very bad acne all her life, got treated with this at age 32. Her acne completely and permanently disappeared.
    If you suffer from acne severe you should take oral antibiotics like doxycycline or minocycline along with topical treatment.It is better to consult a dermatologist.
    Rather than waiting time over asking here. Rush to a specialist or dermatologist coz they only cant treat it better than asking medcines out here. Never be late to reach doctor or else they say...sorry its too late...!


    get well soon.

    Im from NYC and there, going to the dermatologist is free. Its free because of insurance and products are free as well. Make sure you get insurance because it enables you to not hestiate but rather act knowing that your skin problems won't hurt your wallet. I saved $8000 U.S. dollars (340,640.00 PHP) on my treatment for severe acne by doing that. The best part is that I'm sure you can do the same in Manila too. Don't waste your money on store products other than for your moisturizing needs since many give different reactions.
