Doctor's advice:
- "You need to take care of your health no less than your appearance. Don't forget to make an appointment with a doctor if nothing worries you yet, but you have some risk factors (heredity or others), so that you don't have to spend more time and money on treatment for something that could have been prevented. If you have confidence in a particular doctor, follow all his recommendations. There must be feedback or re-consultation to carry out the necessary correction of treatment. Only by having trust and a dialogue with your doctor will you be able to get the desired treatment result."
