Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 

This is a reversible hair loss which happens due to chickenpox. She will get her hair back with some medications. Avoid dandruff. If it happens to be a problem, use Steiprox shampoo 3 times a week.


Start her with Minoxidil 5% solution sprays to apply on the affected scalp areas. Give her Perfectil hair nails and skin Capsules for best results. It may take some months for a visible change.


In the meanwhile go for Complete metabolic profile testing, Vitamin D levels from a laboratory and make a follow-up here with those lab reports. You may reach me from my profile

Hope I answered all of your health concerns . If you have further questions in future, feel free to contact me anytime & I will get back to you in no time. Please give a positive feedback.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
 

Best Regards!
