WOW hairloss isnt a prob no more theres a NEW problem for me

[king-]

i got a white pigmented mark at the side of my cheek just a week ago ( my skin color is brown)

i was so stressed thinking its that disease that michael jackson has

so i went to my derm and she did this test to see if its that with some light
it wasnt that ( THANK GOD)

but my pigmented skin is still expandin on my cheek she dosnt know what it is

and im so stressed thinking of the worst that can happen

f*** i rather loose all my hair then this

Stress only contributes to the problem bro

not to sound :gay:

but yo u could go to "mac" and get some concealer for the white mark to match your natural skin tone

some white marks can be caused by a fungus

what did the derm say about your white mark?

if im not mistaken your using TRET.......right?

cheers

Sorry to hear about this, King. Perhaps your best bet is to go back to the dermatologist to try and get a better explanation of what's wrong. If the light patch is expanding, then this makes the need for an explanation even more urgent.

The only "disease" of the skin Jackson has is too much bleach. He's got plenty wrong inside his head though.

funny if it is Tinea Versicolor

it can be treated with keto shampoo

Treatment of Tinea Versicolor with Topical Antifungals
Topical antifungal medications are the treatment of choice for tinea versicolor. The following topical antifungal treatment regimens have been shown to produce a greater than 70% clinical response rate:

2% Ketoconazole cream applied once daily for 11-22 days

2% Ketoconazole shampoo regimen (lathered over affected and surrounding areas and left on for at least 5 minutes before rinsing) applied once daily for 3 consecutive days

thanks for searching that up for me i appreciate it , but i got tested with the woodlamp again and it shows that i dont have vitiligo or tina versicolor , however the doctor did see the depigmentation mark i was talking about on my left cheek , so he prescribed me another derm for june 1st so ill have to wait for that

How dark is your skin dude?

How dark is your skin dude?

not dark or not white in the middle like tannish im sure you can see in the pic then theres just a white spot , what you guys think

In that pic it is hardly noticeable. See what the dermatologist can do, but don't worry about it too much. It looks a lot worse when it happens to a person with dark skin colour.
