Brief Answer:
Altris has limited use

Detailed Answer:
Hello Madam

Welcome.

I am Dr V XXXXXXX a Dermatologist.

I have analyzed your query and would help you find a solution to the problem.

For someone with a matching profile, I would advise the following

1 Altris is a chemical that acts on the level of stimulating production of color.

2 Applied twice daily, it is safe

3 However, its safety in pregnancy is not yet fully established. Biotin and Calcium pantothenate taken orally are good additions to the treatment but one needs to use them for fairly long period of six months or so.

I am sure this information helps you in making a better decision. Please let me know if I can help you further with your questions.

Our best wishes

Brief Answer:
Altris and usage

Detailed Answer:
Hello Madam

Welcome back with your query.

Altris contains a number of ingredients known to facilitate hair pigmentation and Peptides are also one of such substances.

In normal course, the hairs produce color in their roots which gets distributed to the shaft of hairs as well.

Due to certain factors including heredity, diet, stress, and others this process gets hampered and one gets white hairs.

Altris increases the pigment producing cells and is thus helpful in regaining color.
It has to be applied to preferably cleaned scalp and gets absorbed by itself. It is most suitable for scalp involvement and can take many months to produce results.

It is one of the comparatively recent introductions in the treatment for this condition and has yet to get established based on long term usage in the field conditions.

I hope this information helps you make a better decision.

Should you have another question, please contact me.

Best wishes
