Question 1

i know that my facial hair was causing me to have acne and bumps.so i got rid of them.after my bumps disappear black spots are left.why?

Accepted Answer

May be comedones: Acne is caused by skin pores being plugged by tiny clumps of skin cells (the clump of cells is called a comedone). When there are no bumps or actual pimples and pustules, the acne-prone areas of skin will still have plugged pores. Maybe the black spots are actually the comedones in the skin pores. The best way to tell is to have a primary care doctor look at the spots.

Question 3

how does olive oil prevent acne and make my facial hair grow faster?

Accepted Answer

It may not: Diet has little impact on acne. If it makes your facial hair nicer, I'll be surprised. If your acne flares, manage it with topical benzoyl peroxide or retinoic acid and if you need something more powerful, your physicain can help.

Question 4

i have scanty periods since a very long time, i am single, my age is 28, but i want to rid of my facial hair and hormonal acne?

Accepted Answer

Possible PCOS: Scanty periods, facial hair and acne suggest polycystic ovary syndrome.  I advise that you start with a gynecologist and or endocrinologist  who can do an ultrasound and labs to confirm elevated androgenic hormones.  Sometimes weight loss is helpful if obese.  Also, metformin, hormone therapy like birth control pills and spironolactone which is antiandrogenic may help with facial hair and acne.

Question 5

i have black spots on my scalp where my hair has thin and 2 spost on my face as well as on my ear. it's not acne or blemish. they scab up. what is is?

Accepted Answer

Black skin spots: Without a picture, it is hard to say.  These could be many things, including benign nevus, seborrheic keratosis, or solar lentigos (due to sun exposure), to name a few.  These do not usually scab up unless irritated/scratched.  Basal cell carcinoma (a low grade type of skin cancer) can be pigmented.  If there are irregular borders and coloration with bleeding or bump, this should be seen by MD
