I would pat dry your face and use a gentle cleanser. Our clinic's choice is Hydrase Soy Facial Cleanser to help improve the skin. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

There is a theoretical risk, but the risk is still quite low. If you think your hair is thinning, speak to a knowledgeable dermatologist about solutions. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

In my practice we combine them, I suggest being evaluated to ensure that you are a candidate for either or both  and develop a long term plan with your provider.  Please only see an expert, both of these procedures can have complications.  Best, Dr. Emer.
