Your symptoms of milia and hair fall suggest an imbalance in Pitta and Kapha doshas, leading to clogged pores and weakened hair roots. To address this, Ayurvedic treatment focuses on purifying the blood, balancing Pitta, and nourishing the skin and scalp.
For internal detoxification, take Gandhak Rasayan tablets (2 tablets twice daily) and Manjishthadi Kwath (20 ml with equal water twice daily) to purify the blood and reduce skin issues. Triphala Churna (1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime) helps in detoxifying the body and improving digestion, which is crucial for clear skin.
For external application, gently exfoliate your skin with Kumkumadi Taila or use a mild herbal scrub made of Masoor Dal (red lentils) and rose water to prevent further clogging of pores. Avoid using heavy creams or products that can block pores. For hair fall, apply Bhringraj oil or Neelibhringadi oil to the scalp twice a week to strengthen hair follicles and reduce hair loss.
Dietary changes, such as increasing water intake, and consuming more fruits, leafy greens, and foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, will support skin and hair health. Avoid spicy, oily, and processed foods that aggravate Pitta. Practicing stress-relieving activities like yoga and pranayama will also help in maintaining hormonal balance and reducing hair fall.

At 25 years old, experiencing milia, which are small, white cysts on the skin, particularly on the cheeks, along with hair fall can be concerning. In Ayurveda, these skin issues may be indicative of an imbalance in the Kapha dosha, which can lead to the accumulation of excess moisture and oil, resulting in clogged pores and the formation of milia. Hair fall can be associated with various factors, including nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and stress.
To address milia, it is important to adopt a gentle skincare routine. Regularly cleanse your face with a mild, natural cleanser to remove excess oil and dirt without over-drying your skin. Exfoliating once or twice a week using a natural scrub, such as a mixture of sugar and honey, can help remove dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores. Additionally, using a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer can maintain hydration without contributing to further breakouts.
For hair fall, ensuring a well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is essential. Focus on incorporating foods high in protein, such as lentils, beans, and nuts, as well as leafy greens, fruits, and healthy fats like avocado and olive oil. Herbal remedies such as Bhringraj (Eclipta alba) and Amla (Indian gooseberry) are highly regarded for promoting hair health. You can consume Amla in powdered form or as juice, and using Bhringraj oil for scalp massages can strengthen hair follicles and stimulate hair growth.
In addition to dietary changes, managing stress through practices such as yoga, meditation, and adequate sleep can significantly improve both skin and hair health.

Ah, milia and hair fall... quite a common combo, actually. Let me try and untangle this for you with some Ayurvedic insights.
First, let’s chat about those milia. They're like tiny little keratin plugs just chilling under your skin. Ayurveda often links things like this to an imbalance of the Kapha dosha. When there's excess Kapha, it can makes the skin more prone to congestion. One thing you can do is reduce your intake of dairy and heavy, oily foods as these can aggravate Kapha. Start your day with a glass of warm water with a pinch of turmeric and a dash of lemon—this helps in balancing Kapha and purifying the skin. Give it a go every morning on an empty stomach.
Oh, and don't forget about keeping your skin clean. A gentle exfoliation with a mix of chickpea flour (besan) and rose water once a week could help you too. It's like a mini pamper for your face but stick to once a week so you don’t irritate the skin more than what is needed.
Now, about your hair fall. I hear ya! Hair issues are often a sign that our Vata dosha is a bit haywire. Stress, lack of proper nutrition, or even irregular sleeping patterns play a role here. Try to incorporate more healthy fats like ghee or coconut oil in moderation in your diet. They’re like Vata's best buds, giving you the lubrication needed to keep hair strong and preventing fall. Also, regular oiling of your scalp with coconut or bhringraj oil can work wonders. Massage it gently into your scalp once or twice a week before bed and wash it off in the morning.
And lastly, take some time for yourself. Stress can sneak attack and shake up your doshas more than you think! Maybe a few minutes of deep breathing or a bit of yoga to calm the mind and steady the body. If things don't start improving or you notice they're actually getting worse, be sure to reach out to a healthcare provider. They’ll help get you the right treatment.
